Final Reflection

  Over the past few months, I've learned how to properly research information about a topic I've chosen. My understanding of college- level research was a bit hard but was still able to manage it. For those who wants to take ENG 103, i recommend you to take the regular class instead of a hybrid course. I personally found it a bit hard only because you don't really have enough hours with the professor. Now for those who prefers hybrid classes, this would be the right choice for you to take. I wished i knew that taking a hybrid course would be hard due to the fact you have to be in charge of everything, meaning he dates and everything else, making sure you're on track of everything and making sure you're not missing any work. I found easy taking my time to search for a great source and reading carefully making sure I understood what i was reading in order to write my essay.

Sharing Topics and Two Research Sources

My topic is about Schizophrenia and how it affects with people's life and what they do do to either prevent it from getting worse or avoiding it.  I'm using 2 sources that that help me find the information about the movie.  The first one is a JSTOR call "Schizophrenia" by  Elaine Walker and Kevin Tessner.

Close reading on film; A Beautiful Mind

I've chosen 2 films still about the movies that shows the emotions on the the characters. In the first film; figure 10,  it shows John Nash hugging his "friend" for support, because he was having a rough day due to not having his idea accepted to another professor. John Nash suffers from schizophrenia so often Nash tends to forget what he does and tend to have hallucations and when this occur his best friends comes in hand to support him and keep him calm. While watching the movie you end you miss little details that may be important when writing the paper.         This clip shows a tragic orange/grayish color that shows the viewers how sad yet happy this part was to John because he saw his imaginary friend. I could use this film still to shows the readers how a schizophrenia person minds works on a regular day to day base. The second film still is Figure 11; and it’s when the doctor’s takes John to the clinic so that he can be tested ...
