Hi Class,

Our Librarian, Rachel, can’t come to our classroom tomorrow morning; instead, she wants us to meet her at the Library. So we will meet in the classroom first, take roll, etc., and then go to the Library together.

Rachel is really a great Librarian. I think she will be happy to adapt to what you want to discuss. I am going to put some of the main topics that I have gotten from you, below.

Basketball  (this is pretty broad)

Propaganda

U.S. Pirg (what is a “PIRG”/ what is “Frontier Group”?) exposing misinformation + social media

How music affects people

Is a college education necessary/the unimportance of college

I got most of these from Worksheets that were completed on time. I am not going to take any more late Worksheets, so, if you want to add more topics to ask her about, I welcome you to add them as a Comment to this post.

Hi Class. I hope our discussion of citation and knowledge and sources was helpful today. In order to keep you from “circling” this Capstone Assignment (namely, not getting started), I am going to give you another Worksheet assignment for Homework. It is in your WEEK 8 Folder as well. Here is the direct link.

As you can tell, we basically began talking about sources this way in class today. Now, I want you to do one on your own.

A LOOK AHEAD:

Tuesday I will talk more about AI use and integrity, and sources.

Next week, Mar 21, the Librarian is coming to our Class.

The following week, Mar 25-29, we won’t have in-person class. We will have conferences on Zoom. Details and links to come.

Hi Class, Your WEEK 9 Assignment Folder is live and there is a short assignment already in it. It is the worksheet discussed in class today and it is due Thursday morning. Here is a direct link to the assignment.

We will discuss your UNIT 2 Capstone Assignment in more depth on Thursday. I already put a copy of it in your WEEK 9 Folder as well. Before you start on the Capstone, you will need to get approval of your Topic with me.
