Blog #8 Self Efficacy and the Final Research Paper

The final research paper is due in a couple of weeks. It is a major paper which requires planning, writing, and thoughtful integration of the ideas we covered during the entire semester. How are you approaching the completion of this task? What is your plan? How do you plan to complete the assignment in a timely manner? What are the specific tasks that you would need to do to get the work done? What’s your strategy and plan for the completion of this final paper?

Time goes by so quickly! The final paper is due in a couple weeks and I know this is a stressful time for everyone, especially with so much change occurring in the world around us. Throughout the semester I have gained a vast amount of information on research and the importance of it for our future careers.

During class we were going over the next task which would be our research proposal. During our last class you asked us to find an article that related to our topics. The information you provided me before going into our breakout rooms allowed me to understand the activity. I was able to find an article in relation to my topic. Thankfully my peer, Corey, brought it up during class and it provided me further guidance for the new assignment. I will be using that article to help me as a guideline to the research proposal. I will be certain to review the rubric first and continue to check up with it as I work on sections. I think separating the work into sections will allow me to complete the task. Then I will review the rubric again once my paper is finally completed. 

Our final paper is a large assignment; however, I feel that it can be accomplished with organization. My plan/goal is to start the assignment this weekend. I will set aside a couple hours after work to go over the rubric and start my work/draft on Saturday. Sunday’s are currently my only day off and will be focusing on it all day while taking breaks. The goal is to set aside at least 2 hours a day on my workdays to work on the assignment while balancing my other tasks at hand. It can be difficult due to working in front of a computer all day. However, I think the key are breaks lol. That should help me out. If any concerns come about, I will then contact you immediately to gain clarification. I believe organizing my time will allow me to be able to complete the assignment in a timely manner. I am approaching this task with an optimistic mindset and will give it my best to complete the task.
