Konbanwa.
Today we covered a few different topics: I distributed the Romeo & Juliet project list, we talked about doing proper citations in bibliographies, and I gave you the Chapter 8 Power Notes assignment.
If you missed class today, you need to get the Romeo & Juliet project list from me, I still have extra copies.
I also gave you a handout on doing citations according to the CBE format. This will help you to do your bibliography properly for your PowerPoint presentations. We will be doing the presentations for the American Entrepreneur project on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Everyone must be ready to present for Tuesday!
