What advice would you now give to someone writing his/her first scientific paper?

Think about your topic and decide if it is a good topic to write about. Organized sites and articles you

plan to use in your writing. If you think your are done with your research, you can be assured that you are

NOT done. You will need to do additional research after the initial research exercise. Spend as much time

writing and rewriting your research paper, it will pay off in the end.

         What areas do you feel you strengthened in the past 10 weeks?

How to find factual articles. I think I know how to write a more active versus passive sentence.

         What areas do you feel still need improvement in regards to writing?

I need to keep working on it all, however, I think I am better at some things than others.

         Any final thoughts or statements to make before we wrap up?

 Do not give up, the more you write the better you get.

         Last, this was fun bet you did not think it would be! Thanks for all of your hard work!

Feeling better now, decided to change my topic, but to what...........................

Paraphrasing

Felt a stressed out before the reading and seminars this week about paraphrasing. Afterwards, I felt much more comfortable with paraphrasing and the discussion really helped. I think the instructors are doing a wonderful breaking it this way.
