Week 3

Dear students, Today you will read homework 1 (summary of a novel) in groups of four. After that you will review Week 2 homework (in-text citations and references). Then you will learn about classification. If you were going to classify a topic, what language would you need to use? Kind regards, Chris Elvin

Week 2

Dear students, Hello again. Today you will look at APA formatted in-text citations and APA formatted references. Mostly we will focus on in-text citations. A couple of common mistakes for Homework One was; • not putting the in-text citation within a sentence ..... (Shakespeare, 2019) incorrect .... (Shakespeare, 2019). correct • not writing the reference in sentence case Flowers Of Algernon.  incorrect Flowers of Algernon. correct Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone.  incorrect Harry Potter and the sorcerer's stone. correct One other thing is not to copy from the Internet. If you do copy even a few words (five or more), you should cite it in APA format. Rule 1: Don't copy sentences. Rule 2: Don't copy sentences, then change the words. Rule 3: Strings of five words or more identical to the original may be construed as plagiarism. You will review  in-text citations  and  references  in APA format as you did last week.
