Standard 01-24-2013

I hope you felt some closure after watching Elie Wiesel walk the grounds of Auschwitz with Oprah Winfrey.  It's a powerful viewing, especially when he looks at all the hair (14,000 pounds!) and claims that he wasn't worthy to have survived the Holocaust (if not him, then who is?).  We'll talk a bit about it tomorrow and I'll assess your responses to the prompts.

Tomorrow we will spend time in Lab B working on our WDIWTLMA papers.  I want you to have some ideas about what you could research.  We'll discuss possible topics as a class before moving to the computer lab, but I want you all to come to class with a couple options.  Then you can start researching the topic and learning more about it.

Remember, this paper will contain a plethora of citations.  A works cited is also expected.  Anyone found copying information from a source and not citing it is committing plagiarism and will  fail the paper.  Cite those sources.  When in doubt, cite it out.

See you tomorrow.
