The textbook readings this week were very helpful to me. I have always struggled when trying to pick a research topic in the past. Now I find myself writing ideas down when they first come to mind, rather than trying to recall them later. Following the steps for topic exploration in The Bedford Researcher (Chap. 2a) should make it even less painful.
The assigned web pages also provided some great templates for me to use when narrowing my topic. I especially like the layout of the Paradigm site, <>. When I am using dial-up at home, I appreciate pages that show links when the cursor hovers over the tab. It gets very frustrating if I have to wait for every linked page to load just to see what information it covers. Creating a free account was a simple process, too. I plan to recommend this site to our HS English teachers. The tutorials will be great for some of our struggling students.
