Writing a position paper and research paper

After submitting my research paper, I started to reflect what I had done for the past 14 weeks in this course. I faced a lot of difficulties in writing the position paper and research paper like everyone else. I had problem in writing the thesis statement for my position paper. Besides this, I had no problem in the process of writing the position paper as my tutor guided us along the way. But problem occurred when I wrote my research paper which was under the supervision of my supervisor. I had a few meetings with in the beginning and a meeting in the end. I felt these did not help me in writing my research paper. The problem was later discovered by my course mate. Luckily, I managed to correct my mistake. A week before the submission of the research paper, my supervisor disagreed with my title. It made me think hard but the problem was not solved until I consult my lecturer.

Besides, writing these two papers could be served as a preparation for me if I am to further my study. Lastly, I felt very thankful to my supervisor, my lecturer, tutor who was willingly to help me in writing my position paper and research paper even though it was not her responsibility as well as my friends. These people had helped me in accomplishing my position paper and research paper.

Final touch up on my research paper

Rewriting the title kept on playing in my mind after the last meeting with my supervisor. This Friday will be the due date. There was only one way to solve my problem which is to ask help from other. My friends could not help because they feel that there is nothing wrong with my current title. Besides, I requested help from my tutor. She knew that my title was not very accurate but she said that she could not give me a better title for my research paper. The last person whom I consulted was my lecturer. Luckily, he gave me a title “The influence of personal background on a feminist writer”. In the last meeting, I ask helped from my supervisor but he did not help me. He said it is all depend on me how I want to write the title. I asked because I did not know how to improve my title. I hope my supervisor will accept this new title because he is the one who will be assessing my research paper. Now the problem with the title has already settled, I have to do final editing to my research paper so by this Friday I will be able to hand in the research paper. This will be the end of my research paper.
