Deadline #6 HW #3 Writing Project Reflection

The steps I took to complete this writing project was brainstorming ideas. After a few hours of pondering, I came up of the topic, hunting controversy. I researched mostly over the Mesa Community College Library Database to get a better feel of my topic. I wrote my research questions and refined it with help from the Bedford Researcher. After getting my research question, I had to continue to find feasible sources. After gaining enough information, I wrote my draft of my research proposal. We peer reviewed our paper in class, was able to correct my mistakes, and turned in my final draft. I believe the steps leading to the final draft were well planned and flowed through each assignment. For the next writing project, I will not need to follow these steps because it is the annotated bibliography. What I am most proud of this writing project is that I really did not procrastinated and I choose a topic that I was interested in. I usually write papers to please instructors, but this is one of the topics I really wanted to write about. That is why it came easy for me to write my research proposal and not procrastinate. I was most concerned about was trying not to plagiarize. I was worried about turnitin.com and wanted to make sure I did not have any problems with it. I read through my paper and made sure there was no connection/similarities to other's writings. What I wanted to improve was my grammatical errors. Even after the draft, I felt my paper was very much error-free, but after rereading it, I still found errors. I hope for the next writing project I will get most of my errors fixed within the peer reviews, and not afterwards. The outcome I worked for was to complete one of the three writing projects of this semester. I feel that I completed the writing project (research proposal) to the best of my ability. For the next writing project, I hope I can make sure the MLA style is correct for my bibliography.
