I chose my topic, because I know much about Bob Marley, and I would like to know more. Yes, I am still happy with my choice
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•Why did you choose your topic?Are you still happy with your choice? **

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What goals did you have for your research? Did you meet those?

One fact I liked was that Bono, the U2 singer, inducted Bob Marley into the Rock and Roll HOF. I also liked the fact that Bob would only use a Gibson Epiphone in his concerts.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What facts about your topic interested you most? **

Yes, it did help me get a better understanding, because I compiled lots of different facts about Bob into one, so I learn more, and because each genre give a better understanding each time one reads one.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•Did this kind of project help you get a better understanding of your topic than you might have with a more traditional kind of research paper? If so, why and in what ways did it help? **

I collected a few pages worth of info, and it was very easy to find, because the internet had tons of sources about Bob Marley
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•How much information did you collect? How easy or hard was it to find information? **

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What did you learn about the research process from this project? Consider: the best places to find certain kinds of information; what sources are most credible; the best order for conducting your investigation; how to record information and sources; anything else that you learned or that confirmed what you already knew.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What strengths did you use as a writer in this project? What new strengths did you discover?

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What criteria did you use in deciding on the genres to include in your paper?

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•What piece was the hardest or most challenging to write? Why? The most fun or interesting? Why?

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">•How did you decide on the organization of the pieces into a cohesive whole? Consider not only organization but use of transitional devices and packaging.
