Day 7 *2.9.10*

Throughtout most of my high school years we had to write many research papers. In the paper they required a works cited page. To do this out libraian taught us to use a web site that helped us create works cited in MLA format and other formats. This fullfills ISTE- net standard 4A: advocate, model, and teach safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information and technology, including respect for copyright, intellectual property, and the appropriate documentation of sources. We had to site many of the authors of books, web-sites, and documents that helped us gain an understanding of the material we were researching. Here at Fairmont State this would be the Citation Machine on the Libraries home page. If i were to assign a research paper, I would teach them how to use sites like this to assure the right set-up for their own wroks cited page.
