I just felt that researching cant be done in really short time, it makes so much easier when I do little by little. I think my grammar is too much to be better. However, by taking this class, i felt i can do better than I thought. I learned how to write intro and conclusion in this class. It will be useful at future time.

 

Thanks

These resources answers and helps my questions. the first article is credible and gives many information about taekwondo and how it related to sports. second article explains about discourse community well.
