My Research Paper


Actually this is my first research paper written in English; even though I did some research papers before in the university, this research paper it’s kind of different. The first reason is because I must write in English; sometimes I had difficulties to recognize grammatical error, and word choices. The second reason is because there is no specific field of the research, or in the other word the topic is too general. Because I can choose any topics, it made me difficult to decide what my topic is going to be. When I did research paper in the university, usually just for specific area that professor asked. For example in finance major, the professor asked our class to do research paper about tools that can be used to give value for company. I also have problem to find the sources, because we need to use three sources: book, article, and journal. The problem is I have to relate the sources with what I want to write in my research paper. The things I like it in here is they have special website like http://www.turnitin.com/, so it’s help me to avoid plagiarisms. Even though, I had some difficulties, I found this research paper really helpful and useful for helping me survive in the university, especially for master degree program. In addition Mrs. Azimi is a really good teacher, she helped me a lot. I just really want to say thanks to her for everything that she has done for helping us during this semester.
