Case Study: “Overwhelmed”
I am an undergraduate student in engineering. I am writing up a report on the research I have been conducting. I feel overwhelmed by the assignment. I am afraid that if I do not do well on this assignment I will lose (or next semester not get) funding support and will have to leave school. One of my friends has helped me find some literature on the subject, and I believe I have correctly selected the parts relevant to my topic. I have copied those parts into my paper and reworded a few things. I was careful not to change much, because I am afraid that in changing the phrasing I will introduce errors. I wonder how many of those works I should put in the bibliography to my paper. If I leave out too many, it may look as though I did not review the relevant literature, but if I include them, the instructor may more easily see how much I borrowed from them.
What should I do?
