I was quite suprised when I've heard that we have to make an in text citation if we want to use an image in our blog. I think it is really useful to learn these things, even if it can be thought as little details.Actually it is not, I'm pleased for being aware of copyright issues. And the website that Sonja mentioned ( www.flickr.com ) , seems lovely. This is going to be the first image that I'll be refering to the creator..

2.todays lecture



Hi! Today we've talked about our oral presentations, which has an important effect(25%) on our final course grade. We have decided our groups and got our practice (a reading text) and final (a movie) presentation topics. It seems quite interesting, I'm looking for both of them. Our group- orange- has : the man who was almost a man (reading text by richard wright) and the full monty (1997). Although I had watched The full monty , I think it will be fun to analyse it with my group members. I tend to watch all the movies before the presentations (It would be better that way), but I don't know if I can manage it, we'll see..

1.Process Essay

As our little holiday comes to an end, I would like to share some details about my writing process.I hope you all wrote well and didn't got difficulties as I had.The website that Sonja had offered under the "How to write an academic essay" folder really helped me a lot. If you didn't read them, I'll recommend you to read with all my heart.At least it would help you for other essays that we're going to write during the year. The handout "Brainstorming" is really necessary if you don't know how to make it .(I didn't...) You can find it when you open one of these handouts that Sonja added.It's on right under the "Writing the paper" headline. Here's the URL if you want to open directly http://www.unc.edu/depts/wcweb/handouts/brainstorming.html
