CA Blogging Assignment 8

My academic skills like researching, reading, writing or discussion have improved through the ELP class in this fall term. The most improvement of my academic skills is work citation. I have few experiences of work citation before university but MLA was really difficult and annoying for me. However, through this term, I learned the method to do it then it became not hard as before. Also, I learned some useful databases in this term. Especially, LexisNexis really helped me to research information which relevant to my essays. With information from the database, my essays become more convincing. It will help me further studying in the future. However, Annotation is still a little bit pain for me but my skill of annotation is getting better so I would like to practice it because I know annotation really helps me to understand the text. Therefore, I think my academic skills improved.

  2. LexisNexis is really helpful. You can easily find a lot of information there. It's the one of the best databases as far as I know.
