It Even Helped with Other Classes…

Since this was my first research paper, at first it was difficult to figure how to write it, and even start it.  However, after I wrote this paper I felt as if I had a grasp on how to write a research paper and this helped with other classes I had to write major papers for.  One of these classes was English, where we wrote a research paper as well.  The research paper for my history class in a way, helped me to prepare for my English research paper.

It gave me useful techniques for finding information within a source, as well as just finding sources.  For the document analysis project I went to Brenda Smith in the library for help finding sources and it was very rewarding.  She gave me useful skills on how to find different sources all over the library on campus.

As well, it helped me create a “writing voice” for myself.  I was able to figure out what I wanted my message to say in any paper I wrote and how to sound scholarly and professional.  This paper was a rewarding assignment that contained lessons that I took and applied to other classes as well!
