...Shana Miller Intro to Literature I-search Paper Choosing a topic for a paper such as this one was really difficult for me. I have always been an avid reader and have always loved so many different authors. There are many questions I have about authors, their works and literature in general. For this paper I choose to write about someone who is a little more modern day; someone who everyone would be familiar with, regardless of whether they are a fan or not. I choose to write about the very famous author, Stephen King. Stephen King has always fascinated me, not only as an author but as a person. This is a man who seems to have an imagination that is never ending, with a soul and mind so dark, is it beyond compare. How else could you write and publish over 60 horror books? All of which are unique, intense, and ultimately terrifying. My question is, who is this person and what is it that inspires this creativity and horror? As a child, I grew up in a household of readers. There was never a time I that I can recall my mother, father, brothers, or myself not having one or more books that each of us were reading. My mother’s favorite author was (and is) Stephen King. There was something that intrigued me about this, though I was not allowed to read most of his works for the longest time; of course my mother was concerned that they would be inappropriate for me to read. This only made the intrigue of the author that much more. Once I was old enough to begin discovering his...

Common knowledge is knowledge that is known by everyone or nearly everyone, usually with reference to the community in which the term is used. A Good example of common knowledge would be that you only drive when the light is green except when making a right turn in some states. It is important to give credit when doing a research paper, if you use quotes from another person to support your research. This information my come from books, journals or newspaper articles etc. Give an example from your field of study of a “common-knowledge” concept, idea, or fact for which no secondary support is required in a research paper.

...Introduction to Research Paper Writing The purpose of research writing is to collect, present, and interact with what is known about a topic. Primary research is “firsthand”—original research that generates new knowledge, such as scientific studies, social science surveys or case studies, and so on. Most college papers do not involve this kind of research. Secondary research is much more common. This is done by reading and organizing materials generated by others’ studies. (Most lower division college research papers are secondary research; primary research writing always begins with a survey of already-published research, often called a “review of related literature” or “lit review.”) Since this kind of writing is using materials that others have developed and published, it is very important to document and cite the sources of material used in writing. If sources are not documented and given proper credit, the result is plagiarism. Plagiarism may not be intentional, but it is still a serious problem. Passing off ideas, concepts, and data as one’s own is a violation of intellectual integrity. It amounts to theft of intellectual property. For many reasons, then, it is critically important to learn how to properly use material collected in research. The appropriate presentation of research content uses proper format. The format, or style, of a paper refers to the systematic way in which research materials are documented and cited. The documentation of sources used in a paper is commonly...

...Running head: INTERNET AND EDUCATION IS THE INTERNET A GOOD EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE STEPHANIE HUNT JULY 14, 2013 ENGL 101-D01 Summary In today’s society, students are relying more on the internet for their educational resources. The internet can be a valuable resource in certain situations; however, students should not rely too much on the internet as a resource. Students should use the resources the library has to offer such as books, newspapers, magazines. These resources are more reliable than most internet resources. Resources such as books, newspapers, and magazines are a better choice because they are supported by facts and reliable sources that can be verified. In Judith Levine article “I Surf, Therefore I am” (Salon magazine, 1997) Levine, says, “most of the data my students Net is like trash fish.” I believe she made this statement because she feels most of the information students acquire from the internet is not useful and reliable. Students need to make sure they are getting information from reliable sources. I am guilty of using an internet as a resource to study for a quiz and I did not do well on the quiz because some of the information was not reliable. On another note, the internet has been a valuable educational resource for me and other online students. University’s like Liberty University that offers online education is a great resource for adult learners...

In decades, scientists and psychologists have been trying their best to understand ourselves deeper and deeper. Nowadays, it is believed that how to boost employee motivation is very important to companies and organisations, and managers have to figure out good and right ways to stimulate their employees. In 2002, Lawrence PR. and Nohria N. published Driven: How Human Nature Shapes Our Choices, in that book, they referred that there are four drives, Acquire, Bond, Learn, and Defend, which drive us to complete tasks and achieve goals in everyone’s life. And then, in 2008, Nohria et al announced a further research in Harvard Business Review about a powerful new model which helps managers to boost employee motivation at workplace, and this famous theory about employee motivation mainly focuses on four drives which were developed by Lawrence and Nohria’s earlier research. 2.
