Today in class we focused on writing an academic research paper, and in particular how to incorporate sources into your research paper drafts, using some of the templates from They Say/I Say (see slides from today). On Tuesday we will discuss the rationale for documentation and citation. Please read Hauptmann, pp. 7-13, distributed in class (if you did not get a copy, get the book on reserve: PN171 .F56 H38 2008) and Howard, “Hot Type: A Modern Scholar’s Lament.”
Your blogging assignment is one reading response blog post.
Don’t forget – the research paper is due on Thursday, April 25 by the beginning of class. Please get in touch with any questions!
