Did I learn how to research? Yes, I would say I learned\u00a0at least a little something about researching that I did not know before.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I used my researching skills in other classes already. For example, in my Cultures and Ideas II two course I had to write a researched essay. As I was attempting to find sources for that essay I found myself switching from hunting to gathering mode and back again. I also found myself identifying sources as background or exhibit sources as I found them. This was a new feeling for me because usually my researching does not have any \u00a0vocabulary attached to it.<\/p>\n<p>With the articles that explained BEAM and hunting\/gathering I was able to put words to what I was doing as a researched and wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Now that I look back on it, the most valuable skill going forward will probably be using\u00a0Boolean phrases to search databases. I had little knowledge of databases before my first-year at SCU and now I am confident in my ability to peruse them.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, during the class as a whole I learned some great writing strategies which I will undoubtedly use consciously and unconsciously in the future.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 327px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4098\/4775707566_3e8aeae765_b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/5\/4098\/4775707566_3e8aeae765_b.jpg\" width=\"317\" height=\"211\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Keep your eyes peeled for that last post! \u00a0<\/strong>Source: Flickr<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> You may have noticed this blog is a reflection and does not bring up a new topic.
