THE
WEB
You
shouldn't need to search the web much - if at all - for this class. If
you do, keep in mind what you find on the Internet will likely be farily
superficial. BEWARE!
Evaluating
internet resources
Rather
than using a general Web Search Engine such as Google or Alta Vista, try
one devoted to scholarly resources:
Librarians'
index to the Internet
The
Last Days of Socrates (Clarke College)
CITE
YOUR SOURCES
For
guidance on citing sources correctly visit the Libraries' Citation Guides & Style Manuals page. See especially links to MLA (Modern Language Association
of America) style.
TAKE
THE TWO REQUIRED QUIZZES
Please
connect to Moodle and log into
the Research Skills for Students class. Please take the two brief quizzes
on Research Skills and the Plagiarism Challenge. (If you wish you may
take these as many times as you like to get a perfect score).
