Research papers and poetry evaluations will be returned today at our last class.

We will convert our MLA research paper into an APA paper. Students will then have two models of papers on which to base their future academic research writing.

Handout:  Differences between MLA and APA.

Students should consult this writershelp link for how to do an APA title page. We will also use this page to examine how an APA paper looks.

Reading Guide Questions

We worked on a reading guide using the poetry reading from the links section.

The instructor handed out a reading guide for the drama links, both of which are in the links section at the right.

We had two poetry roundtables.

The instructor passed out a plagiarism checklist and we went over it. Students initialed it where appropriate and attached it to their research paper, the final of which was turned in today.

To Do for Next Class:

Do the drama reading guide and turn it in at the next class.
