The OED and EasyBib

Thinkwrite:   Now that you've spent a lot of time on Kickstarter, what do you think about crowdsourcing? It's not just crowdfunding; there are citizen science projects (my favorite) and Airbnb and the Mechanical Turk.

Examples? We watch this video....then look at the OED. Punk, anyone? From now on, I may tell you that your TWFTD info must come from the OED. When I do that, you first choose ONE of the quotes, copy it down, give its year, and then the definition that matches that quote. Please do look over ALL the definitions when I send you to the OED. See the link on the left side of this post for the OED. If you are at home, the password info is there as well.

Now, how will you cite your pictures? We go to page 468 in The Everyday Writer.

Homework:

1. Read pages 287-292 in Everyday Writer.

2. Get your citations in shape for the Kickstarter on Paper, due Friday. If you have included pictures, you need a Works Cited page.

3. TWFTD: punk in the OED.
