As with all the previous articles we've read for our homework assignments in this class so far, I found "Choosing a Topic Through Basic Research"to be extremely helpful especially as a person who despises writing research papers. I agree with the various tips the article gives for trying to come up with the overarching topic of your paper. As someone who when it comes to writing puts all the pressure on themselves, sharing my ideas with people so we can come up with a topic together would have never crossed my mind but this article helped point out how helpful that would really be. What the article suggested which I do myself is writing about a topic you truly enjoy. I find that doing this makes it much easier to knock out a four or five page paper on it versus struggling on the first page due to a topic that you don't care at all for but think that it would appeal to the audience more- if you're not into it, your writing will reflect this and your audience as well will not be interested

I agree that sharing topics helps solidify your ideas, as well as gives you a new point of view when it comes to your subject. I also agree that you have to want to write about a subject for it to be the best writing.
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree that writing about a topic that you enjoy or writing about a new topic that you have serious interest in is very important! i feel it helps relieve pressure and it makes the assignment not so terrible!
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's so much simpler and more effective writing on topics that come naturally and ones that you are passionate about so the reading was helpful
