I have done a research for academic purpose in my prior classes assignments. I have used both books as well as research articles and journals published on the internet. Some of the assignment’s requirement was to study research done in the specific area or topic and mention that research along with examples in the assignment along with writing sighting of the research paper mentioning book name or articles source form the internet. I generally prefer book. I go to public library or use library of Chabot college where I can find the book based on the topic using library online catalog or help from the librarian.
Now a day, all universities and authors publishes their research paper or articles online. So, it is now easy for a student find the
For one thing it is free to use GCU library for the articles versus paying the outside publisher for it. The GCU library has over 46000 full text Journals covering all the major academic subject. The majority of the resources are peer reviewed and scholarly. Utilizing the general internet can have you reading and citing information that is not scholarly or peer-reviewed. If for any reason information needs to be researched on the internet, However, the best thing to do is it make sure it is Authority- Scholarly material; Currency- Current on the information used; Objectively- resources; the information provided is good and clear; Accuracy-accurate free of errors and have cited information; relevancy; relevant to your assignment.

If we let the courtrooms be televised to the public, they will start to lose faith in the court system if they do not like what they see. Citizens who watch the programs are most likely going to have a bias and will desire a final judgement that will go one way more than the other. A judge’s or jury’s verdict might cause mass hysteria which can have negative effects to a jury member’s personal life and the reputation of the justice done in Canada. The country will ridicule the judge even though they do not understand the law fully themselves and criticize the jury for unanimously voting for someone to be guilty or not guilty when the viewers want a differing response. The jury do not know everything going on outside of the court and what the media is saying therefore the nation might have an opposing opinion to them. Their faces will be plastered on television for anyone to see and for anyone to judge them. This will stress out an already uncomfortable jury. Alternatively, another result could be the jury being swayed by the public to select a certain decision instead of their own. As a
The main idea of outcome four is revision, editing, and proofreading. To accomplish this objective, I must closely look at my writing to fix the grammar and punctuation errors. I also must make substantial revisions from the initial draft that was submitted for class. A successful revision has more than one person contributing to it. By allowing professors and peers to read my paper and leave comments for me, helps strengthen my paper immensely. Being able to respond to these comments, as well as thoroughly revise my paper, shows that I am proficient in meeting the needs of this outcome.
The biggest forms of information given to you through using the internet would include blogs, podcasts, and videos. The sources I use to evaluate when doing research on the internet is authenticated speaker, speaker qualified, authority, other found credible sources, accuracy, last revision, and it’s current these are some factor I could think of. The topic I chose has credible sources and also reliability sources that are already evaluated and uploaded on podcast, blog, and video.

I have been sick with the stomach bug for the past three days and I am still recovering from it. I also have had four major projects in each of my other classes. Unfortunately, I will not be able to complete the ‘Effective Email Assignment’ before the due date. If you are willing, can you please extend the deadline for this assignment? If so, I will finish the assignment before the extended due date. I believe I can give you my best for the assignment when I will not be rushed to complete the assignment, sick to my stomach, and stretched with other assignments. If not, is there any extra credit I can do to earn back the points I will miss? Thank you!
Since the 1950s everyone in America has known of the major problem plaguing southern and western Chicago streets: extreme amounts unnecessary of violence. This topic has become even more publicly known with the recent presidential election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, where Trump spoke about the violence on multiple occasions as well as taking the topic to twitter a few times (Chicago Still Isn’t). Also, the number of murders, homicides, and other regular crimes all increased dramatically in 2016, breaking almost all statistics from previous years. Even though the violence does create jobs in the police force, the violence needs to be
I enjoyed having Dr. Champe as instructor. Her knowledge, passion and expertise is evident in our discussions, feedback, and assignments. Dr. Champe helped me to delve deeper into my critical thinking. I would always look forward to Dr. Champe's feedback. I think her feedback on my assignments was fair, balanced, honest and helped guide me to a deeper level of critical thinking.
We were assigned facilitation assignments during Week 6 on Performance improvement. I sent out an initial introduction note to the team during Week 3 of class. My goal was to have all text requirements one week prior to facilitation responsibilities. No response was received from team members at that time. During week 5, Dr. Milman sent lecture notes and instructions to the team. The team members had changed since the initial email and so I sent a new email to initiate the discussion of responsibilities. In a previous class facilitation assignment, I learned that facilitation is efficient if each member is responsible for a question or sections. This prevents incidents of multiple responses and questions to individual classmates. In the
When you think of a researcher you think of a scientist doing an experiment. I feel like that is the same as a research paper just without the experiment. So, in a research paper it’s your own interpretation or evaluation or argument. Meaning, you use everything that you personally know and have researched about that topic. When I am assigned a research paper the first thing I do is look it up online to understand more about it. At that point, I try to figure out what is worth talking about in the paper or figure out what I can argue to get my point across. As for library databases, I never used them once because I use technology. I can give a detailed report on the assignment with the correct amount of research and citations.
The purpose of a discipline investigation assignment is to allow students to know more information of a discourse community which they will join in the future.

For the In-Class Essay, I was suffering through strep throat and the flu. I had to take the essay the following Monday when I was feeling better so that I would be more adequately prepared for the assignment.

For the purpose of this assignment, I interviewed my close friend, Mango. Mango’s younger brother, Kale, is a 21-year-old high school drop who lives at home with his parents and has been in and out of inpatient rehabilitation centers for the past two years. Although Kale has not been diagnosed, Mango shared that Kale is a slow learner and had been retained when he was in the first grade. Mango also shared that other then the first time Kale was retained in first grade, from what she can recall, she remembers other teachers advising her parents to retain Kale or put him in summer school. Mango stated that Kale had difficulty learning in school, which resulted in Kale getting angry with his siblings because they who would make fun of him for not understanding how to solve what they would considered simple math problems or write essays. Eventually, Kale started to skip classes and befriend friends who introduced him to drugs. Currently, Kale has been found using drugs such as marijuana, ecstasy, and
