For the last several weeks, I have been working on my research paper. So far, it's been kind of hard. It's been a lot of work and it just had me question whether I wanted to continue doing it or not. In the end, I continued to do it and decided not to give up. One skill that has strengthened while working on my research paper is evaluating my sources. After I read a website throughly I realize whether I should use the source or not, whether it's reliable or not. For the first website I evaluated, I realized I didn't want to use it. I didn't find enough evidence and everything they talked about on the website wasn't something I wanted to include in my paper. I hope I continue to use this skill later down the road and continue to find better websites for my research paper.
