My Final Reflection

Find research for a research paper can be very difficult especially if it's on a rare topic. This class has taught me how to find accurate sources, thanks to Professor Dragan. I was able to find scholarly articles in a different way by using some of the links that the my Professor provided such as the Research Speed Dial. I learned how to paraphrase more and how to at least write a minimum of six pages. My advice for the future students who want to complete a successful research paper for ENG 103, is that you should always take your time searching for your sources, don't use any sources that don't have sufficient facts/information on your topic. Don't get lazy is the number one rule you should really try following because you can end up extremely lost when finding your sources, paraphrase citations and peer editing. You should always put in effort in your work and focus if you want at least an A or B on your paper. From the beginning I felt like it was going to be very challenging which in a way it was but because the Professor introduced his ways on how to write a paper, it was easier than my previous ENG 102 class. Using Gale Virtual Research Library is very effective, I liked it better than LexisNexis. Gale Library had several of sources that helped me with my research paper topic. There is NO way you can't find sources on your topic using this library.  I think the milestones were also very helpful because it was guiding you to your actual paper and I felt like I should've put in more effort in some  of them but Professor Dragan was extremely helpful in feedback for your paper, and many should take advantage of that because some Professors don't tell you what you're missing or something you did wrong, etc. Finally, I'm glad to say that ENG 103 wasn't so challenging, but you just have to focus and follow the guidelines to end up with a successful research paper and happy grade.
