WEEK 3

          In this week the teacher took us the first quiz. It was about Evaluating web Sites, the quiz was different to others because now the teacher use a useful program its name is Hot Potatoes in which we have to choose the correct response. In my opinion I think that this program help us a lot because we have to think a lot because the three the answers are similar, so we can get confused  

     After that, we started with a new topic it was Plagiarism. the teacher gave us some web pages in which we can find important information to avoid plagiarism here I have some of the pages http://www.pvc.maricopa.edu/researchhelp/plagiarism.html ;  http://www.plagiarism.org/ , with this pages we have to answers some questions such as: what is citing?, Why citing is important?, What is quote? And so on. Then we have to upload our answers to the Discussion Forum.

     Then, for the next class we are going to view about the APA Style what is avoid how to avoid Plagiarism why we have to mention the author, why we have to quote, and how we have to do it so the teacher ask some volunteers in order to give a Power Point Presentation but all us have to do it because we have to know the basic things about APA Style, also we have to upload our Presentation to the Forum. i an find a useful web page with the necessary information about APA Style http://www.libraries.psu.edu/psul/lls/students/apa_citation.html
