Project 2 Reflection

       Project 2 has made me a more developed reader, writer, and researcher. At first this project seemed to be a little difficult to me. After I chad my conference and really got the gist of what I had to do, it took a lot of weight off of my shoulders and seemed much more simple to me.

 

       As a reader, I had to go through many different articles to find on that was a good match for my paper. I read about 20 different articles then carefully selected the 10 I thought would be the best fit.

 

       As a writer, I wanted to make sure my paper was the best it could be. I proof read it time after time carefully checking for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I enjoyed Mr. Wenzel going over grammar notes with us, it gave me a good insight of what I could have been doing wrong so after we got those notes, I went over my paper to proof read a time or two more.

 

       As a researcher, I gained a lot of skills. In High School, my teachers never really made us do too many research projects. So at first I thought that this assignment was going to be really hard and complicated for me to do. After visiting the Dirac Library and learning how to research and researching techniques, I learned that it isn’t as scary as I imagined.

 

       This project all in all has given me skills that I will need throughout my duration of college and even my future career. I am glad that I was given a project which allows me to research something that is important to me.
