After going through this whole blogging process I feel as though I have gathered enough information to write my paper. I feel as though I have a pretty good understanding of my topic and doing this blog activity has helped. A benefit of doing this is phases is that I did not have to tackle the whole paper at once. It helped me to learn how to work on a research paper in little chunks instead of sitting down and trying to do the whole thing at once. One downside of doing it this way, for me at least, was that I felt as though it was really spread out and I would forget what I wrote or researched in the previous blog phase. As far as how I will research topics in the future, I feel as though this helped me to learn how to space a project out. I will try to take a research projects in little doable chunks instead of jumping into the whole project head first. I have not felt as stressed while working on this paper as I have in the past when working on other assignments. I have learned that is is important to look at many different sources instead of just picking a couple and sticking with them. I have also learned that it helps to make a notes on the articles and take time to reflect on them and respond to the article.
