Did you remember to put the listings in alphabetical order, for instance?

Use the first part of the week to add the final touches to your research. Once you have a collection of 8 to 12 scholarly sources that you think say something on your thesis, put together your annotated bibliography and turn it in. Follow these steps.

 

From your collection of 8-12 tentative scholarly sources, select the 4-6 sources you think may be the most useful for your paper.

Skim through the relevant sections of all 4-6 sources completely and carefully, highlighting or underlining main ideas and passages you may want to refer to in your paper.

Write short summaries or “annotations” (about 5 to 7 sentences each) of these 4-6 sources.

Paste each of the 4-6 source annotations into your APA style reference page, right below where each source is listed.

Do a final edit. Is your APA citation correct and complete throughout the document? (Remember, you can check APA style in your college’s Online Library.) Did you remember to put the listings in alphabetical order, for instance? Are your annotations free of mechanical errors?

What kind of establishment will you open?

Doctor Mitch

The works we’ve read so far in Unit One have been both difficult to understand and hard to relate to. We don’t go on sea voyages anymore, or gather in mead-halls, or go on pilgrimages to Canterbury. But it would be a mistake to assume that you can’t relate to Old and Medieval English literature. All of these works also demonstrate universal themes and deal with emotions and experiences we recognize today: the loss of a home or a way of life, the need to stand up to evil, the need for community, and taking long, life-changing journeys.

 

Choose one of the prompts below and develop a one-page (250-350 word) response that retells, or updates, one of the classics we’ve read. This is an informal writing assignment, so feel free to get creative and have fun with this assignment, or to get personal and expressive. You are welcome to use first person (I and we) and to write this in any form you choose — poem, short short, letter to the editor, journal entry, blog post, newspaper article, or even a series of Facebook status or Twitter updates — as long as your writing meets the minimum word count.

 

PROMPT #!: Have you ever lost something that was really important to you? How did you feel about it? Did other people understand what you were going through, or did you constantly have to explain yourself? Have you ever moved? Did you miss your old home? Write a lament for something that you have lost. It could be something serious, like the death of a loved one or a move that was hard to adjust to, or it could be something not-as- serious, like the loss of a favorite childhood toy.

 

PROMPT #2: You are trying to open up a restaurant / coffee shop that will become a social gathering place for your friends and peers. You want this place to be really cool — but also a place where people can relax and get comfortable. What kind of establishment will you open? How will you get people in the doors? What will they do once they get there? How will you keep them there for long periods of time and keep them coming back? Write a description or story of your ideal social meeting place.
