Homework due 7/27

As of today, we'll start getting back on track with the syllabus' listed homework assignments, though there will still be a few differences. I'm getting a good idea of what will be most helpful to you guys and what we can spend less time on, which is why I've been making changes.

For tomorrow, please do the following...

Assignment:
  1. Read the "Annotated Bibliographies" and "Documenting Sources" appendices in the back of your textbook. Some of the information will seem repetitive, but it always helps to see or read or hear the important information multiple times.
  2. Be prepared to discuss your final paper topic 1-on-1 with me. That means you should be able to articulate clearly not only the general topic, but the specific subtopic you will be writing about, as well as what you've discovered as you've started looking for sources. Additionally, it would be great if you're able to articulate your anticipated argument or thesis.
  3. Continue looking for sources for your bibliography and final paper!
     
  4. And, of course, Project 2 is due!
Stuff to Bring to Class: You'll have time in class to work on your research, so please bring any materials you might need for that.

I'm excited about this part of the class. You get to start doing deep research and I get to start learning from all the things you'll teach me as you do research. Win-win!
