Research Paper Reflection

     The most difficult thing for writing my research paper was the process of finding all of my sources, making sure they were appropriate, and then creating annotated bibliographies for each source. Once I found all of my sources and I researched and read over all the information about my research question writing the draft and pulling all of my ideas together was rather easy. Next year I think you should give the students some time to actually write the paper in class the week it is due because for me after sports practice and with all the other homework we had it was kind of hard to write the draft.
     The peer editing we did in class for our final draft of our research paper really helped me. Not only all of the editing marks and feedback helped me, but also having the opportunity to read my peers papers assisted me and  gave me ideas for ways to improve my own paper. The grade marks from Dr. D also pushed to find stronger ideas in my paper and better revise my thoughts.
     From looking at the final product on my research paper I think I did a pretty good job and I know all those hard long hours of research and writing will hopefully pay off. In my paper I think the word choice and ideas were strong. I also believe I integrated my quotes into my words fairly well. Overall, I feel confident in my final draft.
