Editing Using Turnitin

First of all, commas in Everyday Writer page 400. Do Ex. 39.1 in your daybook.

Then we look at the list on page 470 in Bedford. In your daybook, please list three of these suggestions that you think will be useful for you to use as you revise.

Do you know how to use "find" in Word? Open your paper in Word, and check. If you had comma splices, f"ind" all your commas. If you had fragments, "find" all your periods. If you use "and" too much, "find" it and see where you can rewrite a sentence. 

And you edit using Turnitin. Use the match to check your quoting and paraphrasing. Less than 10% match for this paper, please.


Homework:

1. Continue  to edit your paper. The Final Version is due Monday, August 19.

2. TWFTD- berserk from the OED.
