Based on the research lesson we had today in the library take the word you’ve chose and research the word in 5 separate sources. In your research you should be looking for things like explanations about the word or idea, history, etymology, importance of etc***
Once you’ve completed your research write a short 300-400 word summary, of what you’ve learned about your word, in this summary you will need to use parenthetical citations. This due Friday February 29th no later than 11a.m.
These parenthetical citations will be linked to the next part of your assignment. Using those 5 source create an annotated bibliography. For guidelines on how to do this see pages 144-45 and 167-168 in The Everyday Writer. You will submit a print out of this annotated bibliography on Monday March 10th
Please note you cannot use Google, Wikipedia or any other internet search engines to complete this project.
.
*** Please note if you are researching a word, you cannot just find an article where the word appears.
Have a wonderful Spring Break!

How can we use parenthetical citations for sources we've found on a web page?
So we don't really have to site them directly on the blog because we will be handin in the annotated bibliography?
Just use parenthentical citations in the blog??
when are you going to post the blog that is due friday?
