Tissue Paper Bike

I thought this paper was a bit tough at first, after I asked about it though I was helped and then caught on, and ended up learning a few things. It helped me understand a bit more about citing at the end of sentences and citations overall.

15.1 Visuals

I am more of a visual learner, so when there are a lot of clear visuals in books (not pictures, more words), I am more likely to get into the book than if there weren't any. 

PROGRESS!

Seeing as I had already finished my paper before writing all of my blogs, my progress is successfully complete! I have already turned in my paper, and am just crossing my fingers for a good grade. :)

TIPS PLEASE!

My mom is actually a doula, so when I went home over the weekend I had her check everything over to make sure I was right with all my information as well as if I had all the information I could possibly talk about.  I also googled tips on revising papers, and ended up with some very good information everyone should try and remember and base their paper off of.

"Question: What's the secret to writing effective emails, letters, reports, and proposals?

Answer: Why, all you have to do is follow the four Cs:

I am writing a paper for History class right now, and this website also has helped me with that paper.

Titles for my Topic

Good titles I had to choose between were
1. Through the Eyes of a Doula
2. Mothering the Mother
3. Caregivers For Mothers

Bad titles, more on the boring side
1. Doulas
2. Caregivers

#25 My topic

I think I did a good job with providing enough information on my topic.  I have grown up around "doula talk" for more than half my life, so I already knew a lot about it.  I am definitely happy that I chose Doulas as my topic because there is so much to know about it, and it was interesting getting more elaborate information.
