Today we were supposed to a have chapters eight and nine read. I'm sure everyone in the class read it all :P lol. In class we worked on a worksheet that helped us to determine whether a website is trustworthy or not. Some ways to find out are by looking at the purpose, authority, currency, and the contend of the site.

I also just realized that we have another project due on Thursday. I did not really understand what an annotated bibliography was until today. I still need to come up with seven more sources to get at least get ten. I hope to get my first draft done as soon as possible by Thursday. I am glad that I can finally use online sources

Have fun writing your papers all. Have a good one

February 11

This week we turned in our topic proposal draft. I feel pretty good about what I covered in my paper.

I also have been trying to keep up with the reading assignments. Today we were supposed to have read chapter 8, which talks about our search for information. Most of it is pretty common sense type like figuring out what sources are best to use.

Today we will be meeting in the library for some kind of lecture on how to use a library catalog, I think.

Conference and Topic Proposal Update

Today I went to my English conference to talk about my paper. Dr. Evens pointed out a few things that I should add, like expressing my interest in the topic, that I'll add to my paper over the weekend. I switched my topic to the study of religion and popular culture recently, and I am having a lot more success from that topic.
