Things I have discovered in my research week 13

Usually when you hear the word research you think that you need to find an answer to something.  I thought that it was strange that were to do research on a question we had about our topic.  I found that it is not only easier but more interesting if you do your research this way.

When I first started paper four I thought that it was going to be hard because It seemed I was trying to search for something that was to broad for my question.  Once I found out what my main idea was it seemed easier for me to research my topic. 

For an example my paper was about how dance attire effected dancers self-perceptions.  When I was doing my research I was only looking for things to do with dance attire.  I found out that these search words were way to broad.  I dug deeper and thought what types of consequences come from self image issues.  I found so many articles that I could use.

I really enjoyed doing this paper because it didn’t only help me with my writing it also helped me learn a great deal about my major that I may have not known other wise.  Who knew that belly dancing can help women feel more comfortable with their body.  This was very interesting and I think I will still continue to further my research.
