The value of the tutorials I felt were important and there were some that were not as important or repeated and already were in our general knowledge,
I feel that the tutorial help you find a balance in choosing you topic and letting you know what to wide or narrow of a topic which is a good skill to have. It also helps you to find background information to get the paper started and lead you in to more information, it shows what are good sources and what are not like vogue magazine is not where as journals maybe, the tutorials help you throughout you prepare and how to do it like what to use and how to get information to help you get a good grade on that paper, it also help you by telling you to ask the library desk help because they will most like are useful and the writing center.
After doing the entire tutorial I see that there were some thing I did not know about researching so I would say I knew fifty percent maybe a little more of what the tutorial was talking about. For example in the first one model it talk about the audience and I felt that was repeated from our general knowledge because in the summer we went over the tap document and how to write who the audience our paper is targeting. How to get our sources and what we are looking for.
What else I feel I need to know about performing basic research is basically what the tutorial has given it covers all the basics in my opinion and it showed us how and where we can get help and our information that we need to complete the paper.
The three things in the tutorial I did not know would be some good places to look up research, I knew some but not all that they had listed, when you search a book in the data base or word what will happen because I have not done that to get a book out of the library.
The three things I already knew is the information gap, what in between what we know and what we need to know, that vogue is not a good source of a magazine to do a paper, what information a source will give me like a newspaper articles, how to find a book in the library. I also knew how to plan out what parts need to be done for the paper, I felt like them telling us that we need to do something on a certain day was not useful or need because everyone has a different way of doing a paper.
