Dr. Banerji went into great detail to answer the question: What is research? The simple version is that research is a systematic way by which we answer questions. The prefix "re" implies returning to study.

Learning how to do grant writing with the secrets and strategies of Dr. Rockis was a great learning experience. I appreciated the tips along the way, the templates, and the breakdown of each to make the process of grant writing doable for me. I have never written a grant proposal or have been part of a team.

3. The first sentence usually has a citation.

4. Make sure to layout the background of studies and guided inquiry well in the literature review.

My initial thoughts about this course was panic and dread. I had no idea how I was going to write a research proposal. I was not looking forward to July 15th. As we went along, I started to learn more about research methodology and I began to understand a little bit more. I like the way it was broken down into pieces to allow it to come together. When it was time to write my research proposal the biggest parts of it had already been done. The literature review took the longest for me because I had to go back and find better articles to help with my proposal. Overall, I am proud of myself for not giving up and getting through the hardest part of this class. I honestly felt like summer started for me on July 16th. I really was stressing over this.
