1. I learned a lot about this topic. I was hoping for more information that was for my view that you should blame the eater and not the industry but the information that came in was opposite of that. With that I learned a lot of new stats about fast food and different views on the fast food industry and obesity.
2. There are many benefits to looking at a topic in phases. One of the reasons being that we can separate our thoughts into different sections. We do not need to worry about cramming everything into one thought and hope everything works out. The down side of this is that it takes a long time to do. If people do not have much time then they will be rushed trying to do each phase.
3. I think that the only way I will approach a topic differently would be coming at it with more scholarly resources. Whenever I use more scholarly resources then I will be able to find out more information that is also able to backed up with facts. If I use the information that I used to use then I will never get my point across to people who will actually check sources.
4. This has certainly made me more confident to discuss different topics. I need to research the topic and learn about it before discussing it with people.
5. The most valuable thing that I have learned about research, is the amount of sources that I have available to me. Whenever I look through all of the reference cites that I have at my disposal then I will be ready to collect better research!
You have a great goal when you say that you want to look at more scholarly sources. I'd encourage you to push that even farther by trying to stretch yourself in using and finding even more scholarly journals in the second half of the semester.
