Assignment Reflection

After finally completing this assignment, I feel more confident in my writing skills. I really liked the time we had to spend on this assignment. I also felt that having workshops and peer editing were very helpful. Having three different people review my drafts had helped me a lot and had pointed out mistakes that I may not have seen editing it myself over and over again. Another thing that had lead to my paper being more successful were the sources that I had found to help support it throughout. It was a little difficult for me at first using the databases online and finding an academic article that had really fit into my paper. I do believe these make papers much stronger versus finding any ordinary website that is filled with a bunch of facts. However, once again, they are also challenges for me to find a accurate source. Many of the sources I find that are academically written sometimes are to hard to understand and go into so much detail that I easily get lost into what the purpose even is of that post. But, there are many academic sources out there and can be both a challenge and a win to find one that makes sense to you and really helps support your topic. I found this assignment hard at first, trying to think of a surprising topic, but after I found that topic things changed. I found a lot of sources that really had helped me make my paper and show that my topic needs more awareness due to the little surprise it may have on the public.
