Agenda

- Paper check-ins:
- Paper patterns (under construction)
- Reminder: Tandon Writing Center. If you don’t have time for an in-person session, you can schedule an ONLINE session with a writing center consultant! Consider doing this some time in November, especially if you’re receiving paper comments that are stumping you. I guarantee it will improve your paper and your grade.
- Any questions on tables and images in APA 7 style? Here’s an even clearer page on tables from the APA Style web site! And I added the APA Style site to the class Project Resources page.
- APA 7, Chapter 5: “Bias-Free Language Guidelines.”
- Please digest the sections that apply to the protected identities you’re writing about.
- Activity: A deeper dive on histories in Ethical Data Collection. Including Henrietta Lacks!
Assignment
On Tuesday 11/2: Meet in Manhattan by 2:30!
- You can go to Bobst with me from 6 Metrotech on the 1:55 NYU shuttle (arrive to 715 Broadway at 2:17). You can do your participation check-in during the ride.
- If you can’t get the 1:55 shuttle, please go on your own, but be sure to arrive to Data Services, Bobst 5th Floor, for the 2:30 tour.
- We will also take a tour of Avery Fisher Center hip-hop exhibit “Sylvia Sylvia.” This will end at 3:30, so you have time to get to your next class and/or do your participation check-in.
Full Draft due 11/4

- Remove your comments and annotations from the Works Cited section. I am no longer reading this section as part of your paper, so either bring your annotations into the paper or remove them.
