April 15- Think about how you have searched for information in the past compared to what you practiced today. How is creating specific search phrases different from just “Googling” a topic? Explain how this strategy will improve the quality of your research.

Response- In the past I would usually just Google something to get the answer, and find it from the first two topics or first page. I wouldn't use sites like Wikipedia, but I didn't research for a trusted source to find information either. But I'm going to start using Google scholar to find info because it's from a trusted source and you can get more specific on what you're looking for.

Summary- I uses to just go off the first few options when searching for something and wouldn't check if it was a trusted source which I learned to not do from now on.

Reflection- In class we worked on the same research assignment but got another paper to fill out.

Reflection- In class we worked on our simile and metaphor worksheet. I also worked on a digital poster.
