Biology 182

Previous versions of the course were Liberty-centered and included computer skills that are not particularly relevant in the new network environment. The Fall 1997 incarnation focused more on information retrieval and use, and less on information technology. And here are some in-process comments at the end of Fall term '98.
There are weblets for
Citation format: use the bibliographic format and conventions found in journals as follows:

JOURNAL ABBREVIATIONS    are a vexatious problem for almost everybody: only American Journal of Botany's format wants the full title, and all others require an abbreviated form. The key to all that is 

 TITLE        BIOSIS serial sources.
 SUBJECT      Biology -- Periodicals -- Bibliography -- Periodicals.

Week 1: books and the Web, mostly

Week 2: tertiary and quaternary literature

First Assignment
Here's how to use the DROP BOX:
  1. Compose your text and save it to your H: drive on Jefferson. I suggest you name the file with your initials (e.g., hab1, the '1' indicating that it's the first assignment)
  2. Open both your H: drive and the L: drive by double-clicking on their desktop icons
  3. On the L: drive, locate Biology, then Bio182
  4. Open Bio182 and drag your file from your H: to the DROP BOX
You won't be able to read anything in the drop box (only faculty have that privilege), but you can read anything that's in the shared folder.

If you're ordinarily a Mac user it'll probably be easier to do this assignment in the wonderful world of Windows.

You should try to submit this way, but if all else fails you can give me the assignment on paper.
