Weekend of February8-10th, 2008

Hello everyone:

I guess it is time for me to post the assignments that you are aware of but just in case here they are:

1. HAPPINESS : First draft of summary based on the two articles
that you have read, discussed and mapped to be sent to Adrianne:
adriannesklar@yahoo.com

- Try to write directly from your notes in order to avoid copying from the text.
- Try to include citations (in-text references):
.......(Smith, 2007)at the end of an idea attributed to a specific author or
Smith(2007)points out that........at the beginning of an idea.
- After you have finished writing save it.
- Edit your work a few hours later(you will be able to identify your mistakes better if you put your work away for a while) for grammatical, spelling mistakes etc. Look for the mistakes you tend to usually make. Anything you correct at this time is better than if you correct nothing.

2. ANIMAL UNIT

a) Discussion question: Read over the discussion question and answer in note
form. We will discuss these questions on Monday.
b) First Article by Jeremy Rivkin. Read and highlight for
discussion on Monday.

3. BLOGS

How would you rate the various parts of the project on a scale of 1-10 ,first in

4. BOOK: Doing Honest Work in College (FOR TUESDAY)

Am starting to feel sorry for you so have postponed till Tuesday.

5. RESEARCH PROJECT

Don't forget to look for books in Clues and perhaps to go to the library to take out or photocopy on Sunday? It is a good place to do some of your work there too, not only the research..


For NEXT WEEK:

Remember, we are going to have a guest lecturer on Monday Morning to talk about Animal Rights.
