Unit 10 Blogs
1. My advice for writing a scientific paper is to begin as soon as possible. At least skim through anything remotely related to your topic because anything can give you relevant information. My research for my paper in my College Composition 2 class also gave me a useful source of information for my Anatomy and Physiology final paper as well. Also, do not be afraid to ask for help. Family, friends, teachers, classmates, and co-workers can all be valuable sources of information. Not only can they give you information about your topic, but they can give you new ideas to research and develop. They can be helpful when it comes to proofreading and revising your paper too. I like to have my friends read my papers not only to check spelling, grammar, and punctuation, but to evaluate the flow and make sure that it is informative while still keeping their attention. If they say it is hard to read, understand, or just boring, I know it needs revision. If the reader does not understand or becomes bored, then the paper is not doing its job of informing the reader about its topic.
2. I think that I have strengthened my revising techniques. Being “forced” to use the paramedic method and whole paper outline methods really helped me a lot. I am not used to using those techniques and it took me out of my comfort zone taking my writing in a whole new direction of clarity. I think they have really helped me to refine more ways to express myself correctly and concisely.
3. I think I still have to strengthen my revising skills. Using the new skills I have acquired, I feel that I am loosing some of what I am trying to convey. I need to find a better way to incorporate the old with the new in order to perfect my personal techniques without loosing anything I feel is pertinent to the topic.
4. I have enjoyed this class and learned a great deal of helpful new skills pertaining to my writing style and ability.
