We had a peer review of section 1 from our guideline. Each group got to receive feedback from at least two other groups. From the feedback received we needed to create another draft which will be revised on Friday with all the class. Be sure that all of Section 1 is done in order to receive the best feedback from both the class and the teacher. We will also need to demonstrate changes that have been made from our previous draft.

Today we turned in the paper where we compared the articles and also another paper about what we have learned, what we remember, how did we benefit. This paper is going to replace the grade for the last group presentation.
We also got into groups to discuss our thoughts about each topic that was presented. The group came out with a brief summary of what we think about the articles we read, and then we wrote those comments/statements on the board in each category/topic that Dr. Phillips wrote.

Lecture: Gabriel Perez (group 6) presented his article to the class & explained a program called turnitin which professors use to check if essays are plagiarized. His presentation included definitions of plagiarism, a video of how turnitin works, connections of his article with the previous articles from his group, and ways to avoid plagiarism. Homework: A concept map/Venn diagram is due monday, it must be printed & NOT submitted through email. You have to take it to class and you will get points for attendance & bringing the work. The map is NOT just over plagiarism, it should compare ALL the topics we have covered so far; you can compare them all at the same time or by groups. You should also include what you learned/main ideas from each topic individually, it can be done in sentences or paragraph form.
