I chose this journal because it was really a helpful tool when attempting to write my research paper. The information contained in the passage was a real help when trying to find a topic to write about and when i was gathering info on my topic. I am glad we did this journal because it really helped get me a better grade i think on my paper.

"Finding a Reseach Topic"

The chapter is a very useful tool when attempting to write a research paper. It went over the many steps it takes to start a paper and keep everything organized. The very first thing you read is, what is a research paper? I think that it is an important thing to know because so many people get confused when writing a research paper. They don't know who their audience should be or if they should be persuading or informing. So knowing what a research paper is is a good first step. Some techniques that are familiar to me are the gathering of worthy resources and being able to provide info on the website, such as a bibliography. I am also familiar with making note cards to organize our ideas and information. The information stated on page 339 can be used to help find a reliable web source.
