What did I learn?
I learnt a lot about doing research. Before this course I hadn’t done a great deal of written work, but I now know it’s important to back up your arguments with quotes. In hindsight I would have gone deeper
What did I enjoy? I enjoyed researching I especially enjoyed looking into sexism, out of everything I researched, that topic was less trivial
What was hard? I found many aspects hard about this blog I constantly hit brick walls by not knowing where to take my research. Knowing I had to do 3-4 blogs a week for 3 weeks made me want to slow down my research and not give it all way in the first few posts, but in hindsight, and with recently having the opportunity to look at other peoples blogs, I see that my research could have gone deeper. Also when I looked for books in the library the majority of the books I wanted were not there. So I found similar Internet research, but that doesn’t compare to real books.
What was boring? What I found boring was the constraints of doing a 3-4 blogs a week for 3 weeks, because it was something I had to do every other day or so, I wasn’t sure how often I should research and how much I should research.
