- Students edited 10 sentences (worksheet attached)

- Students were put into groups of four and given the following four articles:
pro_athletes_salaries.doc |
1) summarize what the article was about (1-2 sentences)
2) identify strong point(s) in the article (as it relates to your topic)
3) discuss the credibility of the source/author
4) discuss how and why you would or would not use this article in your paper

- Find a topic you like
- Check it out on Wikipedia
- Is there a section that could be improved or that's completely missing?
- Gather information that will improve or complete the wiki article (research)
- Use a variety of credible sources (we will go over wiki's reference rules next class)
FOR EXAMPLE-
Today we read four different articles about pro athletes' salaries
We looked on Wikipedia and discovered areas of weakness in their article on this topic (see the link below)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_sports
You could add more information to the paragraph about salaries, or you could add an entire section about a sport not listed on this page
