How is your Short Project #3 going? Have you annotated your article?

Write down:

1. One thing you learned from your article.

2. One question you have about the topic of your aritcle.

3. One question you have about writing a paper about the article.

I pass out the assignment sheet for the Problem/Solution with Research paper.

You read it. Answer questions about it.

We go to the library so you can do research. Oops -- it's all online. Let me show you Ebsco as well as Gale.

Now you have time to work. You can work on your Short Project #3 paper, or you can be searching for sources. Be sure to save links or email articles to yourself.

Homework:

1. If you wish, hand in your Short Project #3 tomorrow.

2. Be hunting for credible sources on your Problem/ Solution topic.

3. TWFTD: a word from your article, your choice.

4. Extras off the internet: http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1qoyn2/assume_all_of_world_history_is_a_movie_what_are/

Problem/ Solution Due

You turn in your papers.

You need to start thinking about finding more information to add to your Problem/ Solution paper for the last big project of the quarter. You can use Google or a database.

You will need to find credible sources, and smoothly add information from them in to your paper, citing them correctly. Next I'll show you what citation needs to look like.

To start, we'll look at how you decide whether a source is credible or not.
