Post 3: Outside Sources

 Using outside sources is important because you obtain more knowledge about what you're writing and you can inform your readers with more facts. An academic writing is all about information writing with research done. Outside sources including online articles, documents, and books, are research martials. Mike Bunn is a great example of using outside sources in academic writing, or why they're important to use. He has information you can trust and cites them. While writing you learn to research and use outside sources will become highly important. You can grasp what you’re writing about and as i said before you learn more. In my essay I am writing about procrastination and I have learned many things that I didn't know before just by looking at some reliable sources. Lastly, outside sources help prove yourself. In my essay I talk about how my biggest downfall is the lack of understanding the assignments. The two websites I have used so far mention how lack of understanding is actually one of the biggest problems. So I felt it wasn't only me who had this procrastination problem and I was able to go into more detail about this problem as well. Furthermore, outside sources are very major in academic writings.
