Working towards final draft

I fixed my grammatical eras as well as my punctiations I also have done a lot of work on my APA formating. I went to a tutor and had them revise my paper before I hand it in. Before i hand it in i am confident that I have done well on this project.

Getting back first draft

I got back my first draft and as i expected i had alot of work to do in order to get my final product to where it needed to be. I spent a lot of time in the writing center working with Caherine Burns on my paper some of the thing i was told i needed to improve on included my APA formating, and my spelling and grammar. I think that once  got done going to Catherine my paper seemed easier to do.

first draft of final paper

I handed in my first draft of my final paper. I used my outline as a refrence for most of the paper but I found that by folling my outline i didnt have anywhere close to 8 pages so i had to create another outline that gave me more topics to talk about within my paper some of the topics i added were stess effects on college athletes' academics and injuries effects on college athletes' academics. I feel like my first draft was a good tool to get me started on my final draft.

Outline

I have been working on an outline for my final project. I feel like the outline will help me when it comes to writing my paper I am confident that this outline is a good piece to work off in the process of writing my final project. The outline has made me confident that I can write 10 pages.

Working towards final project

In class we have been going over what is expected for our final project I am very worried about the length of the project. This is the longest paper I have had to do this year and it takes me a while to write I am worried my paper will not be done on time I am planning on going to the writing center for a lot of help to make this project easy for me.

Interview report 2

I have successfully finished writing my interview report. This project has come a lot easier to me than other projects; in fact I have really enjoyed working on this project. I went to the writing center multiple times to help me with the organization of this project I feel like it helped a lot and I am confident with this project.

Interview report

Last week I worked a lot on my interview report I had to analyze the interview information I got from Dr. DeCiccio about college athletics effects on college academics. It didn’t take me very long at all to recognize the constant themes in what Dr. DeCiccio was thinking. I really have enjoyed this part of the project this far I have gained a lot of information that is not possible to gain online or through books, and I hope to use this information to strengthen my paper.
