At the beginning of this semester I thought that I knew how to write a research paper. but after much thought and learning new information about research I found that I needed to learn a lot more to do a successful paper. I learned that even thou you take the time to look up information and word it in your own words you still need to give the correct credit to the authors by way of listing your resources and using the correct citations. Another thing I learned from this class is the reference page is as important to list them correctly as the rest of your paper. Also, when doing a research paper make sure to use information that the readers can use and stick to the subject at hand. Because I was all off subject due to the information I found was so detailed and lead into other subjects. Thank you again for all of your responses.
