Blog 7: Skunk Ape Tutorial
This tutorial is very valuable, in my opinion. It helps refresh my memory of how to search on databases because that can be very difficult. The mistake I usually make when researching is finding effective information for my paper, but the tutorial helps me find more effective information ethically. The games are fun to do and I really got involved with it. The quizzes were alright, but I mean who likes quizzes? The tutorial is easy learn which is why it is more effective to students and they actually want to use it. I already did know a lot about MLA format because I learned that all in Composition 1, but reading up on it again does not hurt. It is deffinitely a good reference when you need to be refresh your memory about this when writing papers and doing the research for them. I wish I would of known more about it during Composition 1 last semester because that is when I was learning everything and I would of probably caught on a lot quicker with the tutorial than I did without it. The only thing I would change about it would be to not make it so repetitive because that can get annoying and lost student's interest.
