Courses taken: SPAN 300, WLC 400
Reflection:
By taking these two courses I was able to gain knowledge to do research. In SPAN 300, I learned the steps that it takes to create a research paper. It was very interesting to learn that it is also good to find sources that argued my thesis because it made me think more critically.In SPAN 300 I was able to introduce briefly what my capstone research would consist of. Please take a look at me pre-capstone presentation here. This course prepared me for my WLC 400 Capstone class. In WLC 400 I was able to create my research questions, learn how to gather sources, how to cite and synthesize my information in order to begin my capstone project. In addition I was able to create my e-portfolio. Please take a look at Capstone Project page for more information.
