Seniors - Wednesday & Friday - Sept 4 Introduction and Citing Sources

By the end of class, students will begin researching topics for the senior project, learn to use Knightcite to create proper citations and be introduced to the SAT exam.

THE SENIOR PROJECT

Sourcing your references

Take the time to research a topic on the internet. Read a few articles. Decide if it might be interesting to you. Look for sites ending in edu, .org or .gov. These cites are more likely to have factual information than a .com.

Once you think you have a topic, we can discuss possible thesis statements for that topic and decide if it still a path in which you would like to continue for your project.

How to use knightcite:
