Instructor name: Joseph Fitzgibbon Students refer to me as: Mr. Fitzgibbon Instructor e-mail: joseph.fitzgibbon@pcc.edu Instructor phone: 503-223-0725 Instructor location: Cascade Preferred contact: e-mail Course subject: Writing - WR Course number: 122 Course CRN: 12560 Number of Students: 22 ADA provisions needed: no Preferred Date: 2013-02-09 Preferred Time: 10:00 am Alternate Date: 2013-02-16 Alternate Time: 9:30 am Duration: 60Minutes Do you need time to discuss non-library matters with your class on the day of library instruction? Yes If yes please specify: Will be reviewing essays written the previous week Assignment description and sample topics: (This is a Saturday morning class; so, I hope this can be scheduled). Students will begin the process of completing a comprehensive research project (I-Search Essay) that calls for 12 resources, half of which must be peer-reviewed. The assignment will be due at the end of the term. The subject must be persuasive, one in which the students must present both side of the argument while demonstrating that their position is the strongest. I'll give you a list of potential subjects and guideline for the essay in next couple of weeks. I'll also give you a list of topics or issues that students have selected the week before we meet. Upload class assignment and other relevant documents: What are your learning outcomes for this session? 1) Students to have a clear understanding of peer reviewed articles and some examples; 2) Students are directed to the rich variety of resources available through PCC library and websites; 3) Students begin narrowing down their topics; 4) Students have a little time to explore some of the electronic sites and data bases, looking for their specific topics. Other notes: I'll drop off the detailed assignment once we settle on a date. Hope that one of the reference librarians is available on a Saturday morning, as this is a once-a-week class that meets 9 a.m. to noon. Feel free to call me if you wish.
