Outline

 While writing this outline for my essay, I realized how important organization is when it comes to starting a research paper. At first, I started to write mainly on the historical changes in aviation technology, but while working on this I realized that that my paper needed to connect those changes to how American society viewed military pilots over time. This helped me improve my thesis and my background section so that they focused more on society's understanding rather than just technology. One specific thing that I learned was how useful topic sentences are for guiding each body paragraph. Writing the topic sentences early made it a lot easier to decide what information and sources need to be in each section. Another thing that I learned was how outlining can make the essay writing easier because all the main ideas are already planned out. Overall, this assignment helped me realize that taking time to organize your ideas before you write can make the writing process smoother.

Annotated Bibliography

 First, I looked at different sources and read through them. After that, I made sure that they were credible and relevant sources that would be benefit the people that would read this annotated bibliography.

Some of the things that I learned doing this annotated bibliography were how to properly cite sources, how to accept that not every book, website, or movie is going to be one-hundred percent perfect, and how to summarize sources.

Introduction

Hi, my name is Noah, I am excited to start this course because I know that it will help me in my future academic career. While I was going through the course packet, I noticed that there will be no busy work posted throughout this semester and that everything that is posted will help us throughout this course in future assignments. The components of the research project seem achievable, and I find myself thankful for the in-depth instructions that will aid in my success. One of the things that I learned from the course packet is where and how to find credible sources on the deep web. Another addition to the things that I have learned from the course packet is "sandwiching." Sandwiching is used to develop a detailed and well-thought-out paragraph and helps add depth to your discussion or argument, ultimately creating an organized essay. Overall, I am eager to learn new ways to enhance the quality of my writing as the course continues.
