Hypertext Reflections

This hypertext assignment was kind of fun, but trying to figure out how to publish it was a headache in and of itself. I spent half an hour trying to figure it out on my own and using the help bar to figure it out. I did eventually get it to work, but I'm still not really sure how I got it to work. Overall this was an interesting assignment and a fun learning experience.

Reflections on Research Paper

I'm glad that I chose reincarnation in Buddhism and Hinduism as my topic for this research paper. It was a topic that I was always interested in and never got around to doing research for it. This research paper gave me a chance to do all that and to think over the topic again and whether I still believed in reincarnation. I feel that this paper made me into more of a believer than I was before this paper. Some of the stories that I came across are just impossible without reincarnation. So I'm really glad that I chose the topic I did.

Comments on Research Matters

This book Research Matters was helpful to me in this class when it came to figuring out a lot of the things that I needed to know for this class. This book was being used constantly while i was working on my annotated bibliography for this research paper. It was probably my best tool, besides the internet of course.

9.1

I took the quiz "How to Recognize Plagiarism" and i got 8 out of 10 answers right.

Reconsidering Title

The title I chose for my paper was "Reincarnation in Buddhism and Hinduism." This is the original title that I chose for my paper and after thinking about it and trying to come up with a new or better title, I have decided that this title is probably the best way to sum up this research paper.

Teacher Review

Reading the comments from my rough draft and talking with the teacher really helped me to figure out how to continue with my paper and how to wrap it up.
