« Friday, January 27 | Main | Power Outline on the Research Project »

Today in class we started with a warm-up. Our warm-up was, What is the difference between paraphrasing and plagarism? We answered the question, then moved on to getting out our notecards. While getting out our notecards, Mrs. Abrams then explained to us that we needed to put our bibliography cards in alphabetical order by last name. After putting them into alphabetical order, we moved on to putting our notecards into groups by keywords. You should have at least four keywords. When you finished with that, you then moved on to putting all of your notecards in logical order. Putting them into logical order should help you write your paper because it puts them in order of how it should explain it. Once you had them put in logical order, you needed to start on your outline. The title of your outline should be the topic that you are researching. The type of outline that we are doing is called a power outline. You start with the number one and that is one of your keywords. Then you indent a little bit and you put a number two and that is all of the details of that one topic. You do that with all of your keywords.
