Importance of Research

 

Why is research important?

Research expands knowledge of certain subjects and improves the credibility of our work.

Why should you always look at at least three sources of information?

Because it gives us more data. Also, multiple sources provide us with different perspectives on the subject. Finding different sources to support the idea gives it more credibility.

How do you know if a source on the internet is reliable?

We should check the URL and their ending for example if it ends with '.com', '.gov', '.edu', as these websites have different purposes. We should always check the Author, publisher, and date that the source was released or updated. 

Why should you always reference your sources?

Because if we don't reference our work it will be seen as plagiarism. Also, correctly referenced sources give a reader chance to trace the information we used.

Movie was  produced by Paramount pictures.(IMDB)  "Paramount Pictures, In full Paramount Pictures Corporation, one of the first and most successful of the Hollywood film studios. It became a subsidiary of viacom in 1994"   (Britannica).   Ferris Bueller's day off in my opinion is ultimate lazy Sunday afternoon movie, sending nothing but good emotions. Matthew Broderick who was nominated for the Golden Globe award in 1987  for the best performance by any actor in motion picture ( Golden Globes) delivers fun, intreaging and all rounded character to life, making us feel like we

Development of my project

With the deadline just around the corner I finished drafting and ready to submit the project I was carrying out throughout the media 2 module. While redrafting for the last time, I aimed to get rid of unnecessary words and sentences in order to control the tone throughout my work. I also looked at minimalism as a literary device.  'Minimum is both an ending and a beginning, the terminus of patient processes of simplification reduction, exposition, intensification and clarification.' (Botha, 2017)   Will You Please Be Quiet,Please? (Carver, 2014),                                        What We Talk About When We Talk About Love (Carver, 2009)    Also, while working on my story I was reading two short story collections written by Raymond Carver: Will You Please Be Quiet, Please? and What We Talk About When We Talk About Love. Reading these collections greatly informed me of Raymond Carver's work and gave me inspiration when editing my own work. I was interested by minimalism
