Google Me

I have many methods of finding the information that I need for my college assignments. However, one of the most prominent choices is the use of Google advanced search. This is a very helpful tool when it comes to research and inquiry because you do not just get anything that has to do with the subject, but you can also narrow down your search. This allows for me to have more control over the articles and websites that I will be lead to. I can find pages that only have words that I specifically want in the information I will find. Just using regular Google is helpful, but the use of advanced search allows for me to have more time actually doing the assignment rather than searching through useless articles that only seem to have to do with my subject. So the use of Google allows me to do my assignments in a timely manner as well as giving me more time to work on the quality.

Getting help to Help Myself

Out of all the outcomes, I have the most difficulty with developing flexible strategies for revising and proof-reading. This may be the simplest part of writing for others in the class, but to me it is something that I do not think of doing enough. I always proof-read my papers but I do not have any creative ways to help catch my simple mistakes. When I read my paper over again I do not catch the mistakes because I change it around in my mind to make it seem right. A good way for me to fix this is to probably read it backwards. If I do this I would be able to catch more typos and be able to turn in a better revised paper. I can also get a colleague to help me check for errors throughout my papers, but I cannot always depend on other people. I need to learn how to find my own mistakes so that I do not have to get others to read my papers constantly.
