Annotated Bibliography

My annotated bibliography gave me many interesting points of view that I did not even think about going into this paper. They showed the recession point of view, the company point of view, the student point of view, and the school point of view that deals with internships. I also decided that I am going to go in depth about internships in my research paper because that is one thing that will affect most everyone in college. I will also now go into more detail about the recession and how it affects jobs and internships for students.

Group Topic

My group consisting of Valerie, Glenda, and Dan decided that we are going to observe the library. We will focus on the social aspect of the library such as what types of activities people do when in the library. I would also like to see the way people act in the library. It would be interesting to see if they will talk or just stand there awkwardly. It would also be very interesting to see what type of people go to the reference desk for help and see what types of questions they ask. I am excited to see what things happen in the library.

Annotated Bibliography Reviews

Today in English, we peer reviewed each of our group's annotated bibliography first drafts. I learned that mine was very sub-par due to the lack of sources I was able to find. In doing this, I learned I should probably change my topic for the RESEARCH paper due to the lack of RESEARCH that has been done and is available to me now. What a day.

WE LANDED ON THE MOON!

I believe that we did land on the moon in 1969 partly because my elementary school was named Neil A. Armstrong and if we did not go to the moon it puts my entire education in jeopardy. I also believe we went to the moon because we have learned that there is nothing beneficial on the moon or else we would have gone back. I one day would like to go to the moon and believe that it has happened before.

The Day of the Library Visit

Today in English, we visited the library. Honestly, we went over the same stuff today in the library as we did on my visit last semster in English 104. The information is very helpful and can lead to much better research. I learned more specifically how to use the EBSCO search which seems to be my favorite.

February 9

Today in English, we looked at a variety of internet sites. The plan was to cite these websites using the new MLA format. The biggest problem I encountered was selecting the right type of source it was. There were many that were alike but we eventually completed the assignment towards the end of the class. My group worked very well together.

Conference

In the conference, i learned that my paper was on the right path. There were slight errors that needed correcting such as switching do and due. I also did not have the right type of sources for what my paper needed. Another thing that needed work was the way I cited my sources. I also needed to lengthen it so I included things I cancelled out for the upcoming research paper. All in all the conference was very helpful even though I first went to the wrong place.
