Classmate#1:
Part 1
Overall, I enjoyed using the Big6 Research model. It was challenging at times, especially with learning a new skill and putting it into use. Although it was challenging, I still enjoyed it because it was a valuable skill to learn, and I know it will help me throughout my academics and my future career. The step that was the most challenging to me was evaluating my sources. Sometimes it was hard for me to find information on my source's credibility, which lead me to look for more reliable ones. That was how I overcame it for the most part, and in the process, I learned more about my topic.
