EasyBib and Getting Ready for the Shared Essay

In-text citation?  How do you do it?  Keep it simple.  We review Easy Bib -- see link to the left.

Then I show you the format for the Shared Essay tomorrow in Moodle.  We will go to the lab, where you will take the practice quiz until you are comfortable.

Tomorrow you will have 50 minutes to do the two part quiz. A different instructor will score your answers; this will be 5% of your course grade, and the department uses this to assess how well our students are writing.

If you are NOT comfortable typing the shared essay into Moodle, you may use a bluebook.

Homework:

1.  Read or listen to "Finding Out What's Under Second Base" by Lex Urban several times.  Annotate your copy.  Be ready to write about it tomorrow.  Look at the scoring rubric on the back of the reading.

2.  Also, be working on your draft for Wednesday.
