Research Project Reflection

What are you most proud of in this essay?
I am most proud of the content in my essay. I feel like I utilized all of my research in an effective way to prove my research paper and thesis. I am also proud of the way that I completed it. I took my time and didn’t cram it all into one night.
What would you change or add in the essay if you were given more time?
If I were given more time, I would touch on more research topics, instead of the three I did in my paper.
What step in this process benefited you the most?
The step that benefited me the most in this process was teacher conferences. I found out the direction I needed to go in and got feedback on what needed to be improved. The annotated bibliography also helped me immensely while doing my literature review.
What did you learn from project two?
My takeaway from this project is now I feel confident going forward in research papers. I learned how to successfully navigate the scholarly databases too, which will also benefit me in the future for other assignments and classes.
What would you change about this assignment?

I would change the restriction of not using controversial topics, as those are usually the topics that people are the most passionate about.

Project 2 Reflection

I was able to incorporate new writing skills into my paper that I never learned in my high school classes but will aid me in my future writing. 2)      If I had more time to work on this essay I would try to include more specific details to support my topic from a wider range of sources and provide more reasoning to support the legalization of physician assisted suicide. 3)      Peer reviews benefitted my essay the most. This is because it provided me with a lot of constructive feedback that I was able to take into consideration while editing my paper. The teacher review also helped me inn a similar way because it gave me some direction with where to go with my essay. 4)      While writing this project I was able to learn a different way of writing a research paper in which I have previously done in high school. This paper was more formal than other research papers I have written.
