Citing and Referencing Tutorial

Citing and Referencing Tutorial

Excellent- once we work through citing and referencing together, it becomes a habit, and you will love what it does to increase the substance and content of any work as it requires more research than just telling us only your opinion.

So our tutorial is old fashioned in that I have no fancy computer tutorial - it will just be us.

We are going to begin by doing your Week 6 checkpoint together. You need to choose 3 fresh water issues and 3 ocean water issues:

To select a freshwater issue read Chapter 10 Freshwater Resources and Water Pollution, page 249.
Type of Water Pollution Table 10.2 or from the following list: Flooding, Aquifer Depletion, Overdrawing surface water, Saltwater intrusion and salinization or eutrophication.

To select an ocean issue read Chapter 11 page 275, Figure 11.12, ( in your e book this is subsection 11.3) an overview of major threats to the ocean.

After you have selected your first freshwater issue, I want you to find one or a few sentences in your assigned reading that describe a freshwater issue and re type right here those collections of sentences that contain a fact that is ideally the result of a study or some statistic.

Give me those sentences as a response to this post. Use the page numbers above to help you find them.
