Reflecting on external research

At first locating the information for the external research was rather difficult.  I didn't know what keywords to use and I didn't know what I was exactly looking for.  I was rather lost, so I referenced the Library Guide.  This pointed me in the right direction and before I knew it I had too many sources and I needed to trim them down.  They proper keyword is what made the difference for me.  I started with "technology" and far too many  sources were found.  I then narrowed the seach by category and fine tuned the search about 5 times.  This is where I found the good stuff.  The annotations were very helpful for two reasons.  First, because the bibliography is already done- just copy and paste! And second, the quotes from the source reminded me what the authors point and attidude was.  I really ran into no issues with the external research.  I could pick the sources that I had an interest in and could build off them.  One thing I am going to change is the amount of information and citations in my assignemtn #19.  It needs to be a little more developed.  I just had writers block all week and was frustrated the entire time.
