Personal Reaction: I liked chapter thirty and thirty-two as
I feel that they have prepared me to write my research paper. Most of this
information is review, but some of the strategies are new to me. I look forward
to applying these chapters to my research process.
Professional Reaction: Chapter thirty is all about planning
your research project. The first step is to find a topic that intrigues you. You
must develop a focused research question, one that you will use to guide your
research. Once your topic is final, it is time to narrow in on a specific area
of interest. Make sure that your topic is neither too broad nor too narrow.
Next, you must choose what types of resources that you are going to utilize (opinions/statistics/facts/etc.).
To manage the project, you must record your information, start a research archive
and create a schedule. If you follow these steps, you will be able to
effectively write out your research project. Chapter thirty-two is all about
finding sources. There are several places to find information including: on the
internet, the school library and in the field. When using the internet, make sure
that you choose a credible search engine. Use keywords and limitations to find
exact information. The library has many different resources including
databases, encyclopedias, dictionaries, handbooks and companions, government
documents, atlases, biographical sources, bibliographies, special materials and
so much more. When looking for information in the field, you may want to
interview, observe, or use questionnaires.
