MLA Supplements Posted

Two supplements that detail the Modern Language Association's (MLA) 2009 style guidelines, to which most of our written assignments adhere, have been posted to drop.io. These supplements come courtesy of Bedford/St. Martin's:

• handout_hacker_mla_2009.pdf

• handout_lunsford_mla_2009.pdf

As the semester progresses we'll talk more about how to document sources using MLA guidelines. However, the sample papers that appear in the final pages of the Hacker and Lunsford supplements should provide you with guidance as to formatting assignments like the Academic Summary. Formatting guidelines are also detailed on page three of our syllabus.
