Step #1: Look over your own draft and note the places where you either cited sources or need to. Mark those - highlighters are available.
Step #2: We will go over one of the sample essays together. Look at your own essay and determine if you credited your sources correctly. Take notes on how to do that. Write in your margins.
Step #3: Look at your Works Cited page. Double check to be sure that all of the sources you cited in the paper are listed on your Works Cited page.
Step #4: Make sure the Works Cited page is double spaced, has hanging indents, and is in alphabetical order. If you used EasyBib correctly or other citation machine, it should be correct.
2. Post the final copy of your essay in CANVAS. It is due Tuesday.
