D#4, HW#1 - Reading Reflection

WP#2 Assignment Prompt got me thinking about how I would organize my sources into a cohesive list. This changes the perspective I have when choosing bibliographic entries, I now ask myself, "Where will this fit in with WP#2?". Reading to Write was a prompt for me to start actively reading, because it is not something I am in the habit of doing. I'm going to use the tips in that section to start cultivating that habit, as I think it will be valuable in the rest of my schooling. Chapter 42 in Wadsworth clarified some things. I did not quite have a good grasp of the whole "electronic resources" section on MCC's library website. Now I understand that it is more or less a portal to a collection of databases that can search many different publications. I also got a better understanding of what online databases are. Chapter 42c, on evaluating sources, is something I'm already in the habit of doing whenever I examine a source. The questions suggested in the reading are questions I ask myself in the back of my head as I check out a source. The peer review guidelines I will have to review while doing my peer reviews later today. I'm not quite clear on exactly what should and should not be commented on, but I'll feel it out as I go.
