Bibliography Homework

HOMEWORK DUE JAN. 28, 2013!
You need to create a bibliography entry 3 sources.
It could be:
  •  Three books
  • Two books and a website
  • Two websites and a book
  • Three websites
**Honors class: You may only turn in three websites!

TEST TUESDAY, JAN. 29, 2013!
The test will consist of everything we have learned since Jan. 2, which includes bibliography citation, dissecting an informational text and argumentative writing (being able to make a good argument through writing). You will receive a study guide on Monday that you can use to study.


EXAMPLES OF BIBLIOGRAPHY (MLA) CITATION
If you have a book that:
  • was written by Alexandre Dumas (pronounced Doo-mah, for all you clever troublemakers)
  • is entitled The Count of Monte Cristo
  • was published in Paris, France
  • was published by Journal des Débats
  • and was published in 1846
then, the bibliography entry would look like this:

Dumas, Alexandre. The Count of Monte Cristo.
           Paris: Journal des Debats, 1846.

If you have a website that:
  • was written by Thomas Friedman
  • is entitled "Revolution Hits the Universities"
  • was written on Jan. 27, 2013
  • was found on Jan. 29, 2013
  •  was published in The New York Times
  • and the website is http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/27/opinion/sunday/friedman-revolution-hits-the-universities.html?ref=thomaslfriedman&_r=0&gwh=9D2D1D1406201A9A6FFBAEAA76EE5845
then, the bibliography entry would look like this:


Friedman, Thomas. Revolution Hits the Universities. 27 Jan. 2013. The New York Times. 29 Jan. 2013.<http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/27/opinion/sunday/friedman-revolution-hits-the-universities.html?ref=thomaslfriedman_r=0gwh=9D2D1D1406201A9A6FFBAEAA76EE5845>.\

 

GOOD LUCK!
