Week 13 Research Update April 4, 2010

Filed under: 1 — angielaginess @ 12:58 am

So I finished my last 10 annotated bibliography entries and entered them into the Wiki already, now it is on to outlining my paper. These are kind of my week-long goals. I already have a chunk of the paper written (a very rough draft of course) but now I need to really go back through my annotations and the sources I know for a fact I want to use. Not all of my annotated bib materials will make the cut, while not all the materials I wanted to use are in my annotated bibs (if that makes sense). I already have a working outline of my paper; I will just go back through, polish that up and solidify my thesis. I think I was told I was trying to cover too much in my thesis so I need to narrow it a little more. I don’t think that will be a problem at all since some of my paper I feel I need to send some time explaining my definition of literacy, why I think digital literacy and remixing is important, and how metacognition comes into play. I plan on having my 10 page rough draft done by Friday and then after getting the feedback from peers, I will edit and revise it until I feel it is ready to be turned in the following week. Yay! We’re almost there! I wish I could take another TC class with you! That was super informative and a lot of fun! so all in all, I have a plan and am moving quickly to get it all done. The good thing is that I have literally been thinking about this project all semester long and with every reading I have made mental connections to my own topic, so I feel like I am ready to bust out the final product! But I need to be less Angie-Like and not go overboard like I always do and just stick to the guidelines. I tend to make much more work for myself than I need if you haven’t noticed :-)
