EOF Class #7, July 11, 2012: Class Resources, Boolean Search Presentation

Research! Research! Research!

Cornell Method

Guess the Google

Module: Hmmm....what's that smell? Can you smell what Costal is cooking? Oooooo that smell! Can you smell that smell?!


Assignment: Remember..."This..." papers will be due by the end of afternoon modules on Thursday (approx. 5pm?)

READ "This I Believe" essay on page 124. This time, instead of writing a whole journal on it. Let's use this technology we have been discussing for something POSITIVE! Log on to Twitter (if you don't have an account, I would make two suggestions: 1. You should consider creating one for academic purposes, as many profs use it for Stockton-based communication (you don't ever have to use it again). 2. You may, for this assignment, get a friend to post your comment for you, just make sure the comment says so. Use the hashtag #EOFCo in your tweet and post your reaction to the essay while adhering to the character limit. Extra points for saying something that gets other people responding. Extra points for building on the comment of a classmate.

To further help you prepare for upcoming research papers, read wiritng papers in MLA style, beginning on page 457 in Hacker. As you read, consider the following:

1. What are the three main challenges writing papers based on sources in MLA style?
2. What is the relationship beyween you and your thesis?
3. How do you pick the RIGHT kind of body information is?
