Another writing from a notebook, transcribed later... 5:54p.m. I got here late, in comparison to usual. And Laura is early. She just arrived. Well, so far, including me, six students are here. I ran to one of the labs a few minutes ago in order to print-off my blogging draft. Yay! We just got an an in-class assignment from two? three? weeks ago. I got a 10/10 without any corrections on my paper. It was a response to To Bid the World Farewell. We're receiving a one sheet handout on APA documentation. I left my manual at home. Left it there for Diana to use for tonight. She has a paper due. Taking roll now. 6:04p.m. I had received an email from that Dan Cawley guy of Quick Clicks. Oh, I haven't mentioned anything on Quick Clicks, or the email I sent. I'll have to get back to that later. Laura's going over the APA cheat-sheet. Mentioning the troubles of citing we-resources. Web-resources can be a total pain. Reason being is that all the information needed for citation isn't necessarily there. 6:11p.m. She's drawing examples on the board now. We've taken these notes before. I have no idea what the date was. I failed to date that page. I believe that it was week three. I dunno. I'll have to research that more to find out. What's sad is that when I took the notes, I failed to capture everything that was written on the board. I did that primarily because the material was either common knowledge at this point in our educational career; or the material is covered in greater depth in the APA manual. 6:17p.m. Just finished the notes on the board and doing a recap/Q&A. No Q's though. All A's. We really don't ask many questions. Now she's mentioning the citation websites again. I could only find one - can't remember the URL. It worked o.k. I don't know if I'll use it again. Gearing up for the co-edit of the papers. OOPS! Two forgot theirs! (BREAK FOR READING OF ANOTHER STUDENT PAPER) I just read instructions on how to plumb a house. I can't say that it was in-depth. It was a good try. Poor guy. I hope he makes it. 6:30p.m. I'm not really participating in the co-edit process. I'm not going to get any decent criticisms anyway. 6:34p.m. Oh, I am bored. Well, one good thing does come from this - I am writing! Kinda looks like it might rain. Looks overcast. I can't believe that I got a spot in the parking lot. It was a miraculous feat! I slid in her at like ten till six, and actually found a spot! Last parking place on the side row. I almost missed it. I quickly backed up and pulled in. 6:39p.m. and we're readying for break. Final paper will be comparison/contrast. I wonder if I should polish off that paper I wrote last quarter. It was interesting. Well, break. No, wait! Dismissed! Awesome!
