I finally had my meeting with my professor today after having completed my working draft, which is to the right. I got very helpful insights on edits that I could make to my paper.
After completing the final draft of the annotated bibliography, this week I'll be focusing on revising and editing my paper based on these suggestions.
I have updated my annotated bibliography, as shown to the right. This has been a helpful way to organize my sources along with my ideas regarding them.
I found it to be very useful in order to keep myself accountable and organized within a greater scholarly conversation. It helped me maintain a strong idea of what I wanted to contribute.
I decided that an audio/visual format would be the most engaging and effective way of presenting my progress. I filmed and edited a video that I filled with clips of Nirvana performing In Utero like I had really wanted to do. The video format also made it easier to feature images and sources quickly.
In the end, I think this was the best way to deliver the information, and I learned a lot of techniques in iMovie for video editing!
Keeping these logs has been a truly effective and creative way of staying on task with such a large project across the span of this quarter. It has allowed me to sort my thoughts, to make decisions about what direction I want to go in, and to outline my progress and future steps. This log is not the end of my journey, as I of course have some final steps to wrap up the research process from this quarter, but this is my last log. Thank you for embarking on this journey with me!
