Very Important Message Regarding Tuesday's Class!

Everyone, I must inform you that the proposed field trip which was to take place this Tuesday has to be postponed until later in the semester; therefore, meet in our regular room as normally scheduled. This postponement is due to a number of logistical reasons of which you need pay no mind. But what is important to note and bring to your attention is that by waiting we will be able to utilize a fully equipped, computer-tech classroom to perform a variety of tasks involving:

• a skills review of using word processors and included resources
• some quick document formatting tips
• a discussion about how to use the Library resources at York College and other CUNY Libraries
• a lesson in the means by which one can perform online scholarly research using journal databases
• a demonstration showing how one can chose to use specified web-based tools which help one properly cite source material according to MLA, APA, and Chicago style formats  

To restate this one again, meet in our regular room as normally scheduled on Tuesday!!! 

Also, in addition to posting on the blog, bring a PRINTED COPY of e-journal #7 to class!!! We are going to perform an in-class activity which will utilize this assignment, hence it is vital that you bring a hard copy of your homework to class Monday.

It would beneficial for you to bring the Citation Handout, recently distributed, the Essay#2 Rubric, as well as the Gladwell, Gore, and Winn articles. I want to us to offer potential thesis statements and paper topics while in class in preparation for the upcoming essay assignment. I know that we can benefit greatly from such an activity.
