D#5, HW#10, Deadline Reflection

This week I am very frustrated with this technology. I thought I did my draft correctly and submitted it right, only to find out that I apparently did it wrong and no one got it. Therefore no one got to peer-edit my proposal. Which is no help to me. The thing that frustrates me most is that I don't know what I did wrong. Hopefully someone can explain to me and I can get the issue resolved because right now I am just irritated. This weeks assignments helped me develop a detailed and organized proposal for my final research paper which will be very useful. I have written several research papers in my academic career, but this week I have learned about new techniques that make the process of research a little easier; such as developing key search terms and alternative search terms. Reading my peers' drafts also helped me realize common errors that most people make that can be easily corrected once pointed out. It was hard for me to comment on other people's homeowrk about finding search terms because I didn't find people that completed that assignment.I commented on the following pages...

Thanks for the comment on the peer review assignment! Before I went to work I couldn't get on mcc's website and that's the only way I knew how to get to the syllabus! Thanks for the link! Also, on the shared documents part, I was doing something wrong as well and someone told me to write in everyone's emails from the spreadsheet and put them in the "add collaborators" box and then share the document. I'm not really sure if I'm doing it right either, but that's the info. I got on the problem. Good luck!
