My focuses this week were connecting with professionals on LinkedIn in order to get an interview and to complete my third research assessment. Although I reached out to many people, I am having trouble getting a response. I’ve exhausted all of my Linkedin searches, so I will try a new strategy to set up my first research interview. I wrote out my message that I sent to all the professionals, which was a little hard because I’ve never reached out to anyone in this way before. I learned how to put my proper contact information in my message so that the professional can have multiple ways to contact me. For my research assessment, I looked more into a potential proposal relating to the growth of pediatric asthma. Since I annotated my article ahead of time on the weekend before, it was much simpler than usual to complete my assessment and manage my time. I redid some of my past assessments to fix my previous mistakes. By learning how to format the first section of them and how to avoid plagiarism by placing in-text citations, I ensured that they are of quality. For the next week, I want to continue to look for a professional to conduct an interview and do research on the same topic and will hopefully have more luck.
