...downs. I've been able to write papers but I've always needed a little bit of help to complete them. My mom has always been there when I am having problems writing papers. There have been times where I am amazing at them and knock them out like nothing. These are papers are usually short stories or something I can relate to. Then theres times where nothing comes to me and it seems like it takes forever to write them. When writing the papers one of the difficulties came from what I was writing about. In high school papers stressed me out because I knew I was going to have trouble with them. When I had to write my paper for chemistry, I worried about the length, how many citation, and how to cite it. I ask myself how does confidence impact my ability to write? On the one hand the papers I have the most confidence writing and I favor the most are ones where we have to tell a made up story or about a life event. I can write these very easily because I can remember the event very vividly or can make up a story with lots of detail. With event stories I usually just remember then write and occasionally go back to reread and fill some parts with more detail. In high school one of the first papers I had to write in my English class about a life event that changed your life. I thought to myself this is really easy to write about. I had an idea and there was no length on the paper so I didn't have to worry about how long it was. I was ready for this paper. I had confidence and I knew inside...

Francesco Campisi RA Date: 10 February 2016 Paper: 8 * Summary The papers that will be discussed in this essay all revolve around auditor reporting. Especially about issuing going-concern modified reports in relationship with different variables. The variable discussed in the first paper is audit firm size. For the second paper auditor tenure is the variable and for the final paper audit committee composition is the variable that will be looked at. The rest of this section will provide summaries of the three articles. Paper 1. Geiger & Rama (2006) investigate whether audit firm size affects the accuracy of going-concern reporting. They look at two different type of errors, type I errors occur when a going-concern modified report is issued but the client does not go bankrupt. A type II error occurs when a client does go bankrupt but prior audit reports are without going-concern modifications. The authors identify three different audit...

...The purpose of assignment three was to take the information that I learned in my research paper and transform is into three different genres that would target three different audiences. My research paper focused on medical writing and some topics that lay within it. In my paper I gave a background in medical writing history and then talk about it in the present day. I cover prescription writing errors, becoming published and writing in medical school. I chose to take my information on the history of medical writing, prescription errors, and becoming published and transform it into different genres other than a research paper. Along with changing the genre that the information is presented in I must also repurpose it with the intention of targeting...

Description of data collection including sample characteristics and the reliability and validity of techniques employed. 4. Presentation of the results of data analysis including explicit reference to the implications the data have for the research question. 5. Conclusion which ties the loose ends of the analysis back to the research question. 6. End notes (if any). 7. References cited in the paper. By me Abstract: Here’s a one paragraph abstract summarizing my main argument and findings Introduction This is my research question / puzzle. This is why my research paper is interesting and important, and why your life won’t be complete until you thoroughly read this paper. Here is a brief sketch of how the paper is structured. Literature review This is what other people have written about this topic, and about other topics that are relevant. I’m going to make sure that I treat these researchers with respect, and that I present their work in the fairest light that I can. But I’m also going to tell you where I think they got it wrong or missed something important. Certainly I’m going to say why they can’t answer the research question or puzzle that I posed at the start. If they really can answer the research question adequately, then my paper is a bit redundant. Theory There is some sort of problem with the existing literature...

...Associate Level Material Appendix D Research Plan As part of your research plan, you must first draft a research question for your research paper that will guide the rest of your writing. A research question, which is more specific and focused than a general topic, is the question that your research paper will be answering. For example, if your general area of interest is social security, a possible research question might ask “How can low-income families save more money if the United States had a reformed social security plan that includes personal retirement accounts?” As you develop a research question, keep in mind that you will need to research sources to support your topic. Do not pick a one-sided question that will limit your research. Instead, develop a research question that lends itself to further exploration and debate—a question for which you genuinely want to know the answer. Try to pick a research question that is neither too broad, which covers too much, or too narrow, which covers too little. It should be broad enough to be discussed in a short research paper. |What is your general topic or area of interest? |I want to look deeper into the percentage of teen pregnancy now | | |versus back then. | |What is it about your general topic of interest that interests |I have a lot of friends that are teen moms.

...he encountered. Tree wells are a big danger to powder riders one tip Nickoloff gives is to never go off the trail by yourself. Stick with the people you are boarding with to avoid being stranded if one happens to get stuck in a tree well. In the article it explained what to do if you got caught in a tree well, “Digging your snowboard into the snow to turn around, bear hugging trees, or clinging onto branches…” (Nicloloff). By doing these things it allows you to stay up and your top half out of the snow, which makes your chances of getting out much higher (Nicloloff). In addition to this article another source titled, “How to Stay Alive In Deep Powder Snow” has more tips on what to do if caught in a tree well. Robert Cadman who wrote this article informs people to stay calm if cough in a tree well. Struggling is going to make it worse by making the snow fall off branches making it more difficult to get out. He advises to slowly rock back and forth making room for you to breath. Also always going with a buddy making sure someone knows where you have been if an accident like this is to occur...

The only time I was assigned a major research project was in my senior year of high school. I went to one of the specialty schools in the Richmond Public Schools system. Two of the requirements for graduation was the freshman paper and the senior thesis. Looking back, I remember how hard I was struggling in completing my freshmen paper. It was about the effects of the pollution in the Chesapeake Bay. The 10 page paper required extensive research with 350 flashcards, 3 drafts, and a class trip to the Chesapeake Bay at the end of...

...Research Process Mike Nguyen Com/112 August 22, 2011 Kerry Moquett Research Process Research is when we go look for information pertaining to the paper we are writing about. It needs to be from a credible source like a school library or journal from a credible publisher. The research proves the direction we are going in the paper and proves why we are going in that direction. It also helps us gain knowledge in the topic that we are trying to get information about. When we do a research paper we need to find sources that will help prove the point we are trying to make and not just from our own prospective. To be effective we need to find at least three resources that we can incorporate into our research paper. The source needs to be credible and not from sources like Wikipedia. The basic research terminologies are to research the method of discovery. This process test what we know and what we can learn from others from our research. It will also help us understand different views of the topic. We will need to use our investigative skills to find sources that are credible and can be used in our paper. Another skill that will be used is inquiry-based techniques, which will help us gain knowledge of the topic and use it in the future. Logic will be used to make our argument from the knowledge that we got from our research. Primary research is doing the research and getting the information on the topic of the paper. Secondary research is getting the information...

There are contract almost everywhere that we go, when we get a car, buy a house, even when you sign up for a credit card you are putting yourself in a contact. Now every time that you think about something that you want to get into a contract with, it's always smart to think research and make sure that what you are doing is great for you. For example people everyday get into a new car contract because they really need it. Now I have done this in the past but before we got into the contract I made sure that we were able to afford it. Now something that my wife does is takes all the information that we gathered from the car lot and made sure that it would fit in our budget. Now after a long talk we were able to come to the decision that we would take the car. But we wanted to make sure that this is something that really wanted to, I know that if we were not going to be able to afford it then we would be in more trouble for not having that ability to pay for it. Now we are really going to get into this car contract a little deeper and by that I mean we are going to see what is good and what is bad about all decision that will be made in the final hours of the contract. So we will skip past the months that you test drive, and research everything about the new vehicle that you want. And...

...is a research paper on an individual that had a great impact on Black History.” As soon as I heard the announcement, my heart beat increased and my palms began to sweat. Literally, I dropped my face on my desk and whispered, “God help us all; I’m about to fail this class.” I had a gut feeling that the assignment was going to be difficult and time consuming. Immediately I imagined the many hours that I would have to assert on the assignment, and the thought depressed me. Little did I know that doing the assignment would bring me one of the greatest surprises of my academic life and taught me that the writing process can’t be rushed. Mrs. Fisher paced back and forth in front of the class room as she explained how someone inspired her to become a teacher. At some point I stopped listing and was on the verge of dozing off. Suddenlty my attention snapped back to her as her words “I get to assign you the person to do this essay on” pushed themselves into my consciousness. Up this point I had thought that we can pick our own person and had settle on Martin Luther King, Jr. Mrs. Fisher proceed to assing different historical figures to different students while the fear of not getting MLK creeped over me. Finally, Mrs. Fisher said,”Santiago Torres, MLK.” For the first time in that class, I felt hopeful. 3 days later we had the rough draft due about our person. Well I didn’t do as you can imagine. Walked into class with this guilt feeling that we all get after we don’t do a paper on time...
