Summary:

First, we settled in and you viewed samples of promising notes and student references.

Then, you discussed the homework that you took notes on about your issue that you will write a paper. When the other student speaks about their issue, I reminded you to keep on asking them questions.

For inspiration and details on how to move forward with your research, I shared these documents to help you narrow your focus on research and APA style formatting.

Homework due by 7 PM on 04/24/2023 by taking photos of your notes and insert all the photos in your Google Document under the titles Research Article #2 and Research Article #3 (on the same issue to write your paper) in your shared Google document. Other students get to see your work and share it. These articles should be general information or wide reads with notes.

If your Article #1 on your wide reads on the basic information were too short, could you please add more notes as much as you can? There should be at least 2 pages of notes for each reading (article). Could you also put the pictures of your notes in your Google Share file for Workshop 03 so I can edit the APA References?
