CA Blogging Assignment 8

In my second term in ELP, I have tried my best to do research in ICU library for papers. During spring term, I used many of the readings I had done inside ELP classes and my very own experience to support my thesis statement. However, in terms of academic writing, I thought that my paper would not be very convincing because of its lack of objectivity. So I went to the library many times to research on both the databases and the books. In addition to the sourses I found in the library, I also looked for many images that attract the readers of my paper. By using the images, my paper looked more interesting. I think that I did very well in terms of researching. For reading, writing, and discussion, I tried to best to reflect my own experience to analyze and evaluate my thinking. This is because I found it very intersting to listen to section mates' ideas that are based on their personal experiences. However, now that I have done most of the work for ELP, I have a feeling that it would have been better if I had done more readings outside the class, which should have helped me aquire more knowledge and therefore assisted me construct more convincing claims. Still, I think I did a fair job sharing my ideas with the help of section mates, who shared many inspring ideas that made me  want to think about the matter even further.
