Next: Go into Blackboard and complete the activities for Week 7 on copyediting. One of the assignments is the Assignment Worksheet (the same worksheet completed for Week 3) for the chapter.

For the second assignment, you have to find a style manual (APA, MLA, Chicago) or you can use one of the books we are using for the course, like the “The Young Adult’s Guide” to answer to respond to A-H.

You may also use “The Elements of Style” by William Shrunk.  This book can be accessed through the Library at: https://archive.org/details/elementsofs00stru.  You will have to sign up for an account to access it.
