Lab Session Ten


In this Lab session I brought with me my first draft of my report, it had everything but an annotated bibliography and an abstract. I spent most of the lab session on the internet hunting down resources that I could add to my report.

During this lab my lab tutor recommended that I use Google scholar to find journal articles, so a significant portion of my time was spent learning to use it. I also learned about the concept of an annotated bibliography, and what it is used for (primarily providing the reader with a summary of the sources that I am using.)

Lab Session Four



In lab four, we moved on from coursework one and started our blogs for coursework three. Before this however, we were given a PowerPoint presentation about the nature of blogging in order to prepare us for our task. To finish off, we were given a talk about coursework two and shown examples of the type of questions we could use.

I learned how to set up my own blog and about the different companies the offered to host them, including Blogger which i eventually ended up using. I also got more info on the Harvard referencing system and how to use citations properly in my report.
