Next she passed out an MLA citation worksheet. The worksheet was on doing parenthetical citations. After going over the material, there was a brief feedback exercise. We checked the exercise in class and students received class participation points.
Next we discussed the topics list. The instructor explained some of the topics and told the students they could look through magazines and journals at the library. We went to the library and students found ideas. The ideas are to be sent to the instructor by e-mail. Students should list the topics with the one of most interest at the top and the least interest at the bottom. The instructor will return the e-mail with feedback.
We had two student "how to " speeches by Dennis and Michael.
Finally, the instructor asked students to leave their MLA Works Cited assignment.
New students stayed to get caught up on the class.
To do for next week:
Send instructor the e-mail on informative speech topic choice
Read Chapters 1 & 2
Read the "I Am" assignment from the links at right.
