  1. Good Morning,
    What do you think about the following:
    1. finish reading Measure of America and A Long Bright Future before Wed.
    2. have class last a little past 1:00 on Monday. so we can finish.
    3. complete a take home final,with no face-to-face, on Fri.
    4. But you would need to be able to do 1 and 2.
    I'll post to the blog. Please comment so I can get an idea of which way the group will go.

  6. So, we have to have all of the readings done by Monday or by Wednesday? I can have all of the readings done by Wednesday, but not Monday.

  11. APA
    1. Select tense carefully- APA page 78- Use the past tense to express an action that occurred at a specific time in the past...
    Correct: Sanchez (2000) presented...
    Incorrect: Sanchez (2000) presents...

    2. seriation- 63-65, 88, 90, 93 seriation helps the reader understand the organization of key points within sections, paragraphs, and sentences. Within a paragraph or sentence, identify elements in a series y lowercase let6ters in parentheses. The participant’s three choices were (a) working with another participant, (b) working with a team, and (c) working alone. Within a sentence, use commas to separate three or more that do not have internal commas; use semicolons to separate three or more that have internal commas. We tested three groups: (a) low scorers, who scored fewer than 20 points; (b) moderate scorers, who scored between 20 and 50 points; and (c) high scorers, who scored more than 50 points.
    Redundancy- page 67 bottom
    Direct Quotations- page 170-171 always provide the author, year, and page citation in the text, and complete reference3 in the reference list.
    More than 40 words use a block - freestanding block of text and omit quotation marks. Start block on a new line and indent the block about a half inch from the left margin. Double space the entire quotation. At the end cite.
    Citing references in text 174- 177
    Secondary Sources- avoid this- not appropriate for your thesis
    page 178- All port’s diary (as cited in Nicholson, 2003)
    Reference examples- begins on 193- study this carefully
    double apace entire reference page, but don't triple space between entries
    levels of headings- 62-63
    Level 1- Centered, boldface, uppercase and lowercase headings
    2- flush left, boldface, uppercase and lowercase heading
    3- indented, boldface, lowercase paragraph heading ending with a period.
