Rough Draft Response

I feel very confident in my rough draft. I think I am finally getting the hang of the research paper. I have to read the example in the Norton Field Guide a few times to help me out, but after reading that one and the student example online, I feel like I’m in a good spot. I have had trouble catching on to the concepts of how to write papers like a research one, but I think I’m finally getting it. I am mostly concerned with making sure everything is cited right.

           I know we have gone over how to cite thousands of times, but I really get upset when I get points counted off for format or errors that I should have known already. Nothing was ever really easy in my opinion, but if you did good job on your note cards then that was a huge help. I had many note cards that were a huge help for my paper. I really thought it would be easy to copy and paste more stuff than I actually could. It was also hard overall to adapt to writing a big research paper. I really like help from both my peers and Dr. D. I always can really use just another view on my paper. I have trouble seeing my mistakes, so I like to see other people’s views. I would like Dr. D to focus on my quotes and paraphrases in my paper. I would also like to make sure all my format stuff is correct, before submitting it for my final.
