Asking Questions

In yesterday's lesson (25th February 2019), we looked up the citations that we have used to reference the essay we have been improving throughout this whole academic year. While we did so, Mr.Paterson went around each group to see if there was any questions or anything that is unclear. 

Our group was the first ones to be asking the question. I asked about the comment on my essay that was unclear to me, which I got to realize the word focus was different from what Mr.Paterson meant to tell me, and the word I thought was wrong. Some other questions my teammates were asking were how to reference the graph sources, whether if one-sided information is bad, how to reference the information taught in situations like lessons and in lectures. For graphs, he said we should take the original graph, and if we made any changes, we should write 'graph taken from'. For one-sided information, it's better to at least have some kind of ideas towards the opposite opinion. For citing verbal information, we should ask the speaker where their information is from, to show the information is trustworthy. 

Although we did not get to reference our essays much, we were able to solve the questions that we had. I liked this form of lesson because we sometimes do not get to ask questions and even forget that we had one. One thing I am still wondering is if we have to submit the essay with citations for this term. I would like to work on them in the next lesson.
