Fill out the Writer's Page.

Read two drafts.

Homework:

A. Daybook homework: Read Juliet Schor's article "The Creation of Discontent" on pages 611-614 of The Bedford Guide. As you read, notice that her sources are cited using MLA style.  Answer these questions in your daybook:

 1. How many sources are cited by Schor on her Works Cited list? (Be sure to turn the page to p. 614)

2. How many in-text citations do you count?

3. At the end of paragraph #6 there is a quote which has NO page number in the parentheses, just the author's name. Why do you think that might be? (It is correct in this case.) (Note: The New York Times is a newspaper.)

4. How current are Schor's sources? How important is currency to this topic, do you think? Explain.

5. How credible do you think Schor's sources are? Are there any you find weak?
