In-class workshop, Oct. 26th: Annotated Bibliography

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

This Friday, Oct. 30th, six tutors from the Writing Center are going to visit us. They will work with us in groups and go over our Literature Reviews, and teach us about successful peer-editing.

Today after class, I will email the Writing Center tutors your Literature Reviews that you have emailed to me before class today. Everyone who did not submit it will receive a failing grade for this homework assignment. You can still participate in the workshop on Friday with the tutors, but they won't have proofread your essay, and you won't receive any feedback. Those people lose the right to do a rewrite of their final essays.

If you cannot come to the workshop with the tutors on Friday, Oct. 30th, you MUST go to the Writing Center in person (either the center in Morris Library, or the evening-hours center in Trueblood) and have your essay proofread by a tutor there. The tutor needs to write a "conference summary" for me. You need to tell the tutor that; he/she won't do it automatically!!! If you don't attend the workshop, and don't provide a Writing Center conference summary, you will receive a failing grade for the workshop.

Today, Oct. 26th, we are composing our Annotated Bibliography in a class workshop.
It is DUE on Monday next week, in an email to yourself (and cc: to me).


For our in-class workshop today:
Instructions & 2 Sample Annotated Bibliographies:How and why to write Annotated Bibliographies
Link to an Annotated Bibliography in APA
Link to an Annotated Bibliography in MLA

We will write examples of each version on the board. You need your three sources with your underlined quotes again.
