Reflection paragraph on sources

To get all of the information that is needed for answering your research questions, you need many different sources. Unless of course you get lucky and find that most of your answers were in the same site. I, for one, did not fall underneath the lucky category. I was, for the most part, successful in finding good sources to answer my questions with. I do though wish I could have found even better sources that had more information within them. My most successful source would probably be the one about the different pharmacy jobs that you can apply for in South Carolina. My reason being is because this site helped me most with answering my questions with a little more ease. I think most of my sites were trustworthy because they were .edu, .org, .net, etc. The one site that showed the most bias would be the site about scholarships.

Reflection paragraph on process

I have put a good bit of time and effort into all of the research I have done over the past few days. Most of the research was not that hard to find, you just had to be patient and wait for the right information. Over this process I stressed out a little bit trying to find the perfect questions and answers. The difficult part of this research was knowing what sites were reliable and which were not. On the other hand, the easy part was putting together the wordles and works cited page. After you get most of your question in order and the right sites to visit, the rest is a walk in the park. The part of this research process that I enjoyed most was getting to learn the role of becoming a pharmacist. The part of this process that I did not like, was trying to figure out which sites were reliable and which were not. If I could do this project again I would probably choose a different topic that has more research on it so the project could be extravagant.

Wordle #2 based on topic key terms

Reflection paragraph on findings

Within the research that I have done on pharmacy the past few days, I have found many interesting things. One important fact that I have learned is that a pharmacist has multiple work options. A pharmacists work options depends on how you would like to work and what environment you are most comfortable in. Before I researched this topic, I thought there were only one or two work options for a pharmacist. The most surprising thing that I have learned through the researching process is how many factors determine what a pharmacist can make for their salary. A question that I still have would be, does a pharmacist have to go through more school or take extra classes to be able to work inside of a hospital or to be a traveling pharmacist. I still personally like my topic and think it's an awesome decision for a stable job. As of right now, I plan on going to college for a pharmacy degree.

Finding paragraph #3

Does a pharmacist salary depend on which city they work in? Yes, a pharmacist makes more depending on the factors around them. "These variations depend on on a wide range of factors from population to general competitiveness in the market." If a pharmacist works in a low populated area, then they will not have as much work to do and that will lower their pay checks. The same goes for a pharmacist working with a lot of competition. If a pharmacist works near a bunch of other pharmacist then the number of patients each pharmacist sees will decrease. Also, if one pharmacist is well-known and the competition is not, then the well-known pharmacist is more likely to receive most of the business. The quote explains that a pharmacist's salary depends on the wide range of factors such as population and general competition within the market.

Finding paragraph #2

What are the scholarship options available in South Carolina? You have many different ways of applying for scholarships in South Carolina. "For example, Scholarships.com can help you find information about scholarships especially created for those living in South Carolina." In my research, I found a paragraph about scholarship options for students graduating high school and going to college in South Carolina. College can be very expensive and most families can not afford to send their children to medical school. There are many different ways to get scholarships in South Carolina, but you have to do the research to find them. The quotation above is just one option that can help you apply for scholarships.
