The most useful assignment when helping me create my research paper was probably blog number 4 because it got me thinking on possible topic ideas, my methodology, and finally what places could I possibly send my work off to be published. Actually, during the homework assignment I received a response back from the editor of Greek America Magazine. Also blog number 4 aided me in the process of beginning to gather research for my paper. I feel that the most helpful feedback I received during the research writing process was when my first paper was peer-reviewed. The peer reviews allowed me to see what I needed to go back and fix as well as areas in my work that needed to be re-worded or rearranged. My first paper purpose was to get all my ideas down on paper, so having someone to read over and give me feedback was very helpful. The most difficult process during the drafting process was going back and trying to make sections of my paper more clear and understandable. It was hard to fix parts of my paper when the reviewer just really gave me vague tips on improving certain sections of the paper. The easiest part of the drafting process was fixing the mechanic errors throughout my paper. I really feel that my ethnic/identity section of my research paper really shows off my skills as a writer, because I feel its more developed.
