Hi everyone.
After completing the annotated bibliography assignment, I feel like I have a better grasp of my reasons and the evidence that supports those reasons. I am currently preparing some notes and looking through all of my research again in preparation for Tuesday’s presentation. I feel pretty confident so far but I still feel like I have a lot of work to complete. I wanted to begin writing my paper this weekend (so I can get a sense of where I really am, and also see if there is anything missing in my research), but it doesn’t seem possible at the moment because of a ton of other school work I have to do. But I plan to start writing my paper Tuesday night, and write 2-3 pages per day for the rest of the week (hopefully). As I mentioned before, the annotated bibliography assignment really helped a lot and I am hoping that the presentation helps me a lot as well (the reason I say this is because you need to have a really good understanding of your topic, and know the reasons and supporting evidence in order to fulfill the criteria we decided on for the presentation. In turn, that will be very beneficial when writing the paper). And as I’ve been putting in my other blog posts, this paper is intimidating but I’m pretty sure things are going to work out just fine.
Good luck on your presentations and writing your papers in the next couple of weeks.
