Hello future English 102 students,
My topic was psychology and Disney;
with a specific focus on a show you might be familiar with, Winnie the Pooh. I
wanted to know how fairy tales and children’s literature were similar, what kind
of an impact they have on a child’s life, and people’s perspectives on the
furry animals of The Hundred Acre Woods.
My number
one advice to you on this research paper that many people may have already
addressed would have to be, DO NOT PROCRASTINATE on this paper!! Your lives
would be much easier if you simply started researching when Professor Hicks
tells you it is time. I am not kidding you will come across MANY articles that
aren’t necessarily related or useful to your topic. Personally I found it much
more helpful to begin looking for books first rather than looking for articles.
I also recommend that you look through these blogs to see if anyone has a topic
related to yours and see what kind of sources they used. One last thing, if you
are having difficulty with this research paper DO NOT hesitate on asking
Professor Hicks for help she can definitely help you and may even guide you to
some helpful resources!
I hope some of my useful sources will be able to guide you
in the right direction!
