ANNOTATED REFERENCES: Due Monday June 3. The assignment is on the navigation bar above. Find three items you might use in your Research Paper, including one from a peer-reviewed academic/scholarly journal.
RESEARCH PAPER TOPICS: If you are having problems finding research sources, or if you want to change your topic, please email me and I will be happy to help.
BLOG 7 topic (Internet):
Have you used the Internet for shopping, gaming or dating,
or do you know someone who has? Do you know anyone who has developed an addiction
(or time-consuming habit) of one of these activities? Explain how it affected
their lives and how they put a stop to it, if they did. Include user-friendly
links to any specific sites you mention.
ALTERNATIVE TOPIC for BLOG 7: LinkedIn
I mentioned in class last week an alternative blog topic, LinkedIn.com. It's a social media website specifically for professional purposes such as seeking a job, networking and keeping up with business acquaintances. Students should get started while still in school, according to this article. So the assignment is to join LinkedIn, post a profile, invite people you know to link including me, and join at least three groups that might help you network or that relate to your major or career goals. If the group is closed, request to join. Here are some examples:
If you choose this alternative and you link to me, you don't need to do a blog post. I will see your profile in LinkedIn. If you don't want to link to me, post on your blog that you joined LinkedIn, how many people you invited to link and which groups you joined or requested to join.
