Final Blog

As a student in english 103, I have learned that in order to hand in a successful research paper you must stay on task and do everything step by step. Through out the whole semester you should do each milestone as assigned. Therefore when the final paper is due, you can put all the work together and not get caught up doing everything last minute...

 Goodluck....

Research paper status

        My research paper on "A beautiful mind" is about John Nash the main character that suffers paranoid schizophrenia. There seems to be alot of research on this mental disorder. But what I find pretty difficult is to actually compare this situation to the one in the movie. In reality, theres always isn't a happy ending.

 In today class we learned how important it is to quote and cite correctly in our papers.

Sharing a source

                                   

One of the most important sources that I have found so far is from the database Lexis Nexis.  I found an article "Schizophrenia battle can be successful." usa today 28 January 2002: 10. LexisNexis Academic. Web. 26 October. This article is about man that describes how he suffers from schizophrenia. Unlike the movie he was able to overcome this illness with the help of a medication Zyprexa. He explains how his life was like before being treated and how this illness affected this his life.

Research Paper

Right now im really not sure what topic to pick :) i"ll either pick:

• Idea#1: Science and Technology
• Idea#4: Portraying Minds

Essay: Reading Human Minds

 For my first english essay the prompt that I am looking foward to write about will be Temple Grandin's story. I perfer to write on Temple Grandin then the article "Is google making us stupid?" by Nicholas Carr because Dr. Grandin has an amazing life story. The fact that she is a women that suffers from autism and achieves so many things in life is simply inspiring.
