Common Final

Write essay.

Answer the folowing daybook questions about Schor and MLA:

Please underline all the in-text citations you see in the article.

1. The first in-text citation is a footnote, which is unusual. Why did the author use a footnote, do you think?
2. If I wanted to look at the surveys mentioned in that footnote, what source do I need to look at? [the info should be on the Works Cited list]
3. Copy down every author-tag style citation you can find. (Just copy the "according to _____" part.)
4. In paragraph 6 there is a description of an "unmarried Hollywood executive" who bounces checks. If I wanted to read more about him, would I look in Hewitt or Tobias? Explain.
5. The very last sentence is followed by only a number. What source is that page in?
6. How many in-text citations did you underline?    How many sources are listed on the Works Cited list?
7. What's the oldest source used?       When do you think the piece was researched? How important is currency to this topic (using recent sources).


Homework:

1. Read assignment sheet for Problem/ Solution paper. Begin thinking about revisions.
