ICaP web site: Site for information about the course and a store house for the most recent version of documents pertaining to the course.

Class Resources: By Samantha. Please use freely but attribute creator. Handouts on summarizing, peer eidting, abstracts, proofreadingin-text citation, and grading.  Also some interesting stuff on critical approaches to literature and basics on writing about literature.

Evaluating web sources: There are a million of these. Here is one that has been around for a long time and that I have used regularly. it's out of UNC-Chapel Hill. The Purdue University library also has the interactive CORE tutorial and the information evaluation guide, as well as generic resources for students.

Purdue University OWL: The Online Writing Lab is the most accessed online writing center in the world (really!) and is a storehouse for lots of handouts, powerpoint presentations, and other resources for teachers. Definitely a valuable resource.
