Today, you discussed the process of elimination multiple choice questions you answered yesterday (in a bigger group). I then reviewed the best ways to arrive at the "right" answer. I then discussed attribution for titles. I have pasted this all below:
Tips for Getting the Right Answer of Multiple Choice Based Questions:
· Highlight the lines referred to in the question itself
· If answering these and not doing so in test form, look up and write down the definitions for EVERY word you don’t know (including in the questions and answers)
· Use process of elimination (eliminate wrong answers by considering WHY they are being eliminated to arrive at the possible “right” one(s).
· Cross out the wrong answers as you find them (if not on a test, write down why you are eliminating them (not A because…)
Proper Citation for Major and Minor Works
* If a work is considered major (you are referring to a novel, play, magazine, newspaper, feature film, the title of a TV show) be sure to put in italics if you are using the title in something of your own (referring to it). This only works if you are TYPING. If you are writing by hand, underline major works.
* If a work is considered minor (you are referring to a short story, an episode of a TV show, a magazine or newspaper article, or a poem) be sure to put quotation marks around the title in something of your own (referring to it).
