Prior to the quiz, the instructor covered the basics of internal text citation using the MLA documentation system.
We then took a quiz based on Wednesday's session at the library. We corrected the quizzes in class.
We went over Monday's assignment, which is to have 10 annotated citations for the research paper. The instructor showed a page that has streaming video cites. In addition, she suggested npr.org for radio clips and pbs.org for tv clips.
We worked on research paper topics.
