Week 4

     Through this week there has been a couple of areas that I have learned to incorporate into my research, and those are using journals and research notes. I have never actually used journals as a research method. Somehow I never looked into them, maybe assuming that they don’t have enough information in them. This is actually the opposite, they are full of information. I feel as if, it’s almost a compressed book. Whether it’s from a bibliography or citing that can assist you. Also when you advance your search you can find a strong journal that can have limitless effects on your journal. This has helped me broaden my research from more than just books and the internet. As for the research notes, I found them extremely helpful. It helps track what you have done, through that you can see better what you need to change in your search.  This has been helpful in also helping me make my research deeper and hopefully more of a pleasure to read. While trying to make my research topic deeper, there wasn’t really too many things that I felt were difficult. But it was quite a process trying to eliminate journals and articles that I found. As there were quite a few that were very informative.
