Project Web Reflection


Project Web Reflection

            The topic that I did my essay on was the dangers of online dating. I established the idea of this topic because I was watching T.V. and I saw an eHarmony.com commercial. I noticed that in the commercial it only discussed about the good things of online dating but it never mentioned anything of possible dangers. At that moment I came up with my research question which was “Is online dating dangerous?” I did a lot of research on my question and I found many interesting points about the dangers of online dating. I learned a lot of new things that I didn’t know before about online dating in general. Overall I enjoyed developing and writing my essay with the help of all the sources I researched. I felt that a huge help in writing my essay were the group blogs. Although our group didn’t necessarily focus on just one topic, we were all able to help each other out with opinions and ideas.
           I feel that my writing process has definitely changed because I know how to develop my ideas, coming up with a thesis and writing my essay quicker. Last semester it was a bit more difficult for me to develop ideas, thesis, and write because I wasn’t sure how to do so but English 113A really prepared me for my second semester of English. I know I still have a lot more to improve on but I feel that I’m good where I stand at the moment.  The easiest process for me in writing my project web essay was developing my thesis and writing my essay, but what I found most difficult was researching and finding good sources that supported my topic.
