RJA 15

This has been quite the semester of writing, however this class has really enabled me to sharpen not only my writing skills, but my critical thinking skills as well. I chose a topic that was not necessarily hard to find information on, but pertinent information that was concise and not repetitive was a bit difficult. My topic just shed light on a topic that would not ordinarily spark my interest. Also, writing a research paper, and doing the actual research was not something I was looking forward to, but found that in the end was extremely beneficial. Certain websites that Prof. Clark posted, or different articles/sources that I found throughout this process will stay with me my entire academic career. The feedback from peers was wonderful was well, I loved how interactive it was for an online course. All in all, this class was extremely helpful in breaking down the research process, and constructing a research paper. It was also great to see the topics everyone picked, why and how they were pertinent to each person. Great course!
