The research process is a very important part on an iSearch paper for obvious reasons. if you require me to explain the reasons, you are probably not writing your paper right.
I had two weeks to resarch and that was plenty of time.
I started by useing the Ebsco tool, which helped me find biographies and articles on Woz, all very helpful for the process. I was actually surprised that we were informed about ebsco just now as it really is a very, very helpful tool.
Wikipedia is always a nice site to find inforation, but its never really trust worthy so what I did was enter the wikipedia page and then look at the sources for that. I never information directly fro the wiki page because it may be edited or paraphrased, what i did was look at the sources and choose those that were of trust, such as The Biography Channel Website.
I always maintained a focus on the change that he implied in our present, which i consider a smart and obvious move given that that is the main approach of the paper. finding information related to the change he implied and not to his personal life wasn't the easiest thing to do but it wasnt impossible either.

Topic, Topic, Topic.
When writing an essay, the most important (and difficult) part of the process is choosing a topic, in my opinion at least. For the coming paper that I will be writing I have chosen the topic of "What steps are involved in creating a movie or television show?" this topic seems rather unfit for a research paper but I think I can pull it trough. I feel attracted to the topic because film has always been a pasion for me and ive always thought that being a movie director would be an awesome job, or dream job in my case. The way scene's flow and the story line is told with such rich graphics in a movie is comparable to no other media for me, even books. if it is too big of a challenge to find the information, I will use my back up topic, "How Steve Jobs has affected our present" since I do know quite a bit about the topic. I honestly think I would enjoy writing about either of these topics and I feel like this paper will be something new and interesting to do.
