Project 2 Reflections

1. I am most proud of my ability to pull proof and the basis of my research directly from song lyrics from the artists, because at first I felt that my essay wasn't going to have enough detail and information with doing this. It turned out to be enough sufficient evidence to build a good argument.
2. If I could be given more time, I would analyze the effects of the points made by the artists on a deeper level. I would’ve maybe conducted a survey or looked deeper into peoples opinions on the subject and read what fans or non-fans have to say about the way the artists share their feelings and how it makes them feel.
3. The annotated bibliography benefited me the most because it helped me form my literature review. My literature review was very similar to the information that I collected in my annotated bibliography because it provided the basis and background of my research topic, which helps the reader understand what my research question entails and a little background on the artists.
4. From this project, I learned that literature reviews aren't as difficult or as annoying as I thought they were. When I was a student in AP Capstone in high school, I had a problem understanding what exactly the literature review was and what to put in it because I always felt that it took away from what research I was going to provide in my analysis. I learned that the research in my analysis was research that I had to provide, create and/or find on my own, not things that have already been done. 
5. If I could change anything about project 2 and what it entails, I would have allowed a broader range of topics to be chosen from because sometimes the more frequently discussed topics in current events could be discussed on a more detailed or interesting level if we were allowed to create our own research topic off of it.
