Citing Your Sources

Change my mind. Change your mind.  Do you ever change your mind?

A problem for you to consider -- what is the purpose of minimum wage?

What is your reaction when what you THINK is true is proven to be false? Have you experienced this recently?  Did you "change your mind"? What is required to "change your mind"?

Now, work on citing your sources.  Easy Bib and correct in-text citations.

Everyone post to the forum in Moodle, please.

Homework:

1.  Review the essay "Two Years Are Better Than Four" by Liz Addison.

2. TWFTD:  a word from "Two Years Are Better Than Four." Quote from the essay, also.
