The Importance of Research with Freshman Seminar by Antillio Lee


Knowing how to find your information, in some cases, can be just as, if not more, important than the information itself. Knowing how to research, with all methods, is incredibly vital in the success of your efforts. Last week Dr. Williams placed that in perspective for the COAS freshman class. Firstly Dr. Williams stressed the objectives of Freshman Seminar, providing us the students, with a clear cut goal for all of our motives this semester. She soon followed this up with the basic components of research, components such as the current state of research and the frameworks. Dr. Williams tells the student exactly what needs to be researched and how, so each student will quickly and effectively be able to find all the CORRECT information that is needed. After these helpful slides of information, Dr. Williams presents the Freshman Seminar class in its entirety as a case study. Telling in detail what needs to be done from this semester in order to lead into “The Vision”, expected goals.
Overall I would say Dr. William’s lecture was the most imminent help yet. Outlining exactly what needs to be done from me and my group in order to succeed this semester. I highly enjoyed the lecture and can’t wait to begin working with my group in efforts to make these visions of 2010 Freshman Seminar a reality.
