Cite: My Term Paper for Chemical Engineering
Paraphrase: I had to write a term paper for Chemical Engineering 10. The requirements were that it had to be three pages double spaced with four sources. It was supposed to be on a topic related to chemical engineering that has mass and energy balances. I chose to write my paper on polar meltdown.
Analyze: So this was my first paper I have had to write for college outside of my writing classes. It was a pretty intimidating paper at first because I have only heard the word term paper used for grueling academic serious papers, plus the teacher is very difficult and intimidating. Although once we got this assignment I immediately thought of the second paper we wrote in my writing 2 class, the research paper. I knew that if I was going to make this paper good I needed to find some really good sources to use through out. After much debate on what topic I wanted to write on, I decided to write on how the polar ice caps melting will effect society. I found a few great articles that had some really shocking facts. It took me a while to get started but once I did, I think I wrote really well. I use many different facts I found from my sources and I luckily knew how to properly cite them in addition how to comment on them. It took me quite a while to write the paper but once I finally finished the term paper I was very proud of what I had wrote. I think I successfully incorporated the tools I had learned from writing my research paper in Writing 2 and the final result was very professionally written. I'm still waiting to hear back on the grade on the paper but I am pretty certain I got a good grade.
