For today’s beginning of class writing assignment, you will look for and document three web pages that have information relevant to the article that you read for today’s class using APA format.
Imagine that after reading your article that you thought it has an idea relevant to your workplace and you want to share the article and three relevant websites with your coworker.
Create a memo addressed to a co-worker with a subject indicating sources related to a topic found in the article that you read for today’s class.
Begin your memo by introducing its purpose.
Write a one or two sentence summary of the article followed by an APA citation for the magazine article.
Write a sentence explaining that the three web pages cited below are related to the article and might provide more information on the topic.
Find three web pages (not entire sites) that have content related to the topic of the article that you read. Use the modifier (site:com, site:edu, and site:org to find one web page on each of those top level domains–TLDs). Write APA citations for each web page–three in total. You do not need to read or summarize these pages.
Copy-and-paste your memo into a comment made to this blog post.
Then, we will turn our attention to Project 2: Technical Report.

SUBJECT: There should be rules and policies about cellphone use in the work place.
I believe this article is really crucial for the sake of the company and I’d like for you to consider looking further into the subject matter to bring changes in this company.
The article “Evolving Technology” is about the need for boundaries and rules when it comes to the use of cell phone at the work place and the relationship between employer and employees on social media.

Subject: Sources related to literary nonprofit organizations
A wise man once said no pain no gain. There is no progress without struggle. As a fellow writer you and I both know this all too well. That is why I wanted to gauge your thoughts on the benefits one may receive as well as the sacrifices one may have to make when working for a literary nonprofit organization.
The article I read titled, “The Practical Writer: How to Get Paid” by Michael Bourne, is about the pros and cons of working for a literary nonprofit organization and how they could impact your career as a writer.

I have taken the liberty of including the three webpages below related to working for literary nonprofit organizations in an attempt to provide further information on an important subject relative to our careers and livelihoods.
