Class discussions are focusing on two skills essential for academic success: research methods and note-taking. 
Section 1 met yesterday and covered evaluation of websites; Sections 2 and 3 covered that today. 
Today Section 1 performed a note-taking exercise, which Section 2 will do with me tomorrow. 
Tomorrow Section 3 will work with a sub while I am out of the building.  Students will click on the "Evaluating websites" link, and look closely at the nine numbered websites.  Decide whether each one is appropriate for use as a primary source for a research paper, and whether it would be useful in a general research context.  Explain your answers and post them to your blog.  If you do not complete this in class, finish it for homework.
