The topic I chose was actually kind of a difficult topic since I had to research something I had never really known about. It was through suggestions that made my topic about the broken windows theory. Originally it was about defunding the police but it was too new of a topic to write about. I had some trouble finding information before but once I had a solid topic it was quite easy to find what I need through google scholar. The most issue I had with my essay, however, was trying to word my thoughts into complete and logical sentences. It wasn’t like I had solved the issue but it was more of just thinking hard enough as if piecing together a puzzle in my head and forming each sentence for my essay. Basically using up a lot of time trying to gather my thoughts. I have discovered a little solution which is to put what I’m thinking into a sticky note on the side, which made the process just a little bit faster as I didn’t need to keep remembering the original idea while trying to form it into a sentence. This experience of writing this essay has also allowed me to learn more about reading and understanding a scholarly source as well.
