To be success in this course, people should think about 4 things that can be very helpful. These 4 things that i list is based on my experience taking this class.
- Great Topic
People should pick the topic that they are really interested in. because this topic is going to be your main focus during this whole semester. Make sure there is a problem that you can really see and have a passion to solve it. Otherwise, you will be lazy to do your paper.
2. Find many sources
After you get your topic, start right away to find a lot of sources as much as you can. Having many sources can give you more information even a little for your research.
3. Ask the Professor and peers
Do not ever afraid to ask questions to the professor. Based on my experience, Prof. Hawk is a very helpful professor to help you with your paper. Once i stuck with my paper, then i asked him again, he gave me many ideas that really help me for my paper. Asking questions also can give you an idea from a different sight. Ask him even a little question, he will help you.
4. Time management
Procrastinate is a big no in this class. Never wait until the last few days or even a day before the assignment is due. People should spend some time to do this project. This project need a lot of time for reading the sources, typing and editing. it definitely will give you a big different result.
