You will also get the essay question sheet that you are allowed to bring with you into the computer lab tomorrow. We're going to talk about organization and structure tomorrow, and build upon the themes of argumentation and evidence that we started on Wednesday. I also sent you a PowerPoint presentation with some tips on how to avoid plagiarism. Please have a look at this presentation.
