Everything I have learned in this class can be applied to my
other classes as far as research. Being able to look up books in the library
will always be helpful. My major requires me to write many research papers, so
that means I will need sources from both books and online databases. It is not
only important to know that I need to use these sources but I have to know how
to navigate these websites and the library to find what I need in a timely
fashion. Another important resource that
I have learned in this class is how to annotate using MLA and APA format for
regular books and chapter books. Without knowing how to do this, the papers
that write will be completely plagiarized and can cause failure on the
assignment and possible expulsion from school. Giving credit to the people that
helped your work is one of the most important aspects of writing. The final
thing that I have learned from this class is how to refine a research question.
Making a question to broad or to small can be a writing hazard. If it is too
big, there is too much information to find. If too small, there may not be
enough information because researchers have not found any or sufficient results
of that topic.
