February 1st Class Notes

***DISCLAIMER***

The notes I have taken are what I heard and how I interpreted it. These notes do not cover 100% of everything that was said in class and not word for word. Some things on here have the possibility to be wrong. I am only human.

Today in class we discussed:

  • Sos Page.
  • Annotated Bibliography Workshop
  • Discussed Built Environment

SOS PAGE

  • +5points for asking questions
  • +10 for answering questions with link and helpful support.

How to add the SOS category to our sites:

  • Go under Posts à Categories
  • Under name type: SOS (All caps)
  • Under slug type sos (undercase)
  • Leave parent blank.
  • Add description if you like and then press Add New Category.

Annotated Bibliography Workshop

Today we opened the rubric for the Annotated Bibliography.

Questions that arose:

Q: Does it have to be based on the readings?

A: No, it can be about the built environment in general, but it has to be related to the class.

Q: Does each set of annotated bib have to be about the same topic?

A: No, as long as its complete.

Q: Do annotated bibliographies have to be related to Atlanta?

A: No as long as its relevant to the built environment.

Q: How should we make a description about the annotated bibliography?

A: Go under link http://guides.library.cornell.edu/annotatedbibliography and use the one under MLA format to reference. You can quote, should be mostly in your own words. Paraphrase!

Q: Where does Zotero come into play?

A: Right now Zotero is extra credit for the time being. Will get into Zotero next week.

Q: How much to quote?

A: Quoting is fine as long as you provide support as to why the quote was chosen etc. Quoting should not take most of the Bibliography.

  • This post was correctly categorized.
  • Complete and credible.
  • Will get at least 25 Points because it meets the minimum.
  • Few problems with format, but not enough to deter from being credible.
  • Quotes are too long. Needs to be more selective.
  • Writing is good (low spelling and punctuation issues).
  • Organization is good.
  • Score: around 35 points.

Discussed Built Environment

  • Discussed personal experiences with the locations we picked.
  • How is Atlanta different from New York?
  • New York became a big city before we had cars. So it made sense to have a public transportation system. Atlanta was in the age of cars when it boomed, so it didn’t make sense to have a public transportation system. Why spend money on public transportation when you have cars?

Balanced reporting ensures that both achievements and shortcomings are fairly highlighted. On another note, I recently read about new jobs Sindh police are offering—it’s encouraging to see initiatives focused on improving public safety through fresh recruitment. Hope the media covers these developments more actively!
