Reflections on Research!
What were your experiences (positive and negative) with doing research for the final research paper?  What have you learned?  What would you identify as the most useful research skill/technique?  What do you feel you still need to work on? 

Since I know you are also working on a paper, this can be pretty short (150 words)

Homework due May 25th (nothing due 3.19)

Homework for May 25th - Annotated Bibliography.

Homework for May 25th! Even if you missed any classes (including the 25th) , this must be done on time for credit.  BRING IT TO CLASS (you may also email if you are out on the 25th: emccormick@gmail.com)
You will create an annotated bibliography of 5 NEW sources you might use. review for your final research paper (either a new topic or a revision of your food and magic/gender/death/creativity paper). These will be in addition to the sources you used for the first research paper.
Guidelines - At least 1 should be a book. 1 should come from a "scholarly" journal and the rest can come from any media you choose.
Here's an interesting video on the topic from CUNY's own York Colelge:
