1 Step 1: Choose a topic for research English I Mythology Research Project The list of choices will be posted on my website if you would like to do some investigating before you make your selection. Sign-up sheets will be posted at the beginning of the passing period for your class period on. No one may select the same god/goddess, creature, myth, etc. FIRST COME FIRST SERVED! Step 2: Read a myth involving your chosen god, creature, myth, etc. Go to There, you will find a list of gods, creatures, myths, etc. Re-write the myth in your own words adding vivid descriptions. Make sure you cover all the main points and retain the narrative structure (make it a story, not a summary!).you will be responsible for teaching the myth to your classmates. Step 3: Start researching Research the basics regarding the god, creature, myth, etc. (4 SOURCES REQUIRED (2) library database, (1) Book, (1) Website MUST USE THE MYTH MAN WEBSITE Google searches are prohibited! Examples of basic information are below: 1. What are his/her Greek and Roman names? 2. What is his/her domain (what did he/she rule over)? 3. What are his/her defining characteristics? 4. What are his/her symbols? 5. What is his/her relation to the other gods? 6. Who are his/her mate(s) and offspring(s)? 7. What are some of his/her involvements in the lives of others? 8. What other interesting facts can you find? Use the library databases to search for two of your required four sources. Search the library for your required book source (Recommendation: Edith Hamilton Mythology). As you find sources, begin creating your MLA template and Works Cited Page! Instructions for creating your MLA template: 1. Open up Microsoft Word. 2. Type MLA into the search field and press enter. Select the document titled MLA. 3. Enter your information in the heading (First Name Last Name, Teacher Name (Mrs. ), English I - (list your block number), Date ( 5 May 20 ). Enter your last name in the header. Enter your Title (Ex. Greek Mythology: Zeus). 4. Scroll down to the bottom of the document and begin copying and pasting your MLA citations. See tutorial video posted on my website for more information about finding/creating MLA citations. Be sure to save your document!
2 Step 4: Annotate and create note cards Topic or Title of Article Source Number Once sources are collected, print out the pages that will be useful to your research paper, annotate them, and fill out a notecard for each. Note cards are provided to you in this packet! You do not need to go out and buy notecards. See example Facts/info found Step 5: Outline your information Page numbers where facts were found Be sure that you correctly cite your work (this will help keep you organized as you write your paper). I. Briefly introduce your god, creature, etc. II. Explain the significance of them in ancient Greece a. Domain b. Relation to other gods c. Involvement in the lives of others III. How and why the god, creature, etc. is still relevant today Step 6: Write your research paper 1. Your paper must follow MLA format. 2. Your paper must be at least 1 ½ pages (CP classes) 2 ½ pages (Pre-AP classes). * Failure to meet the required length will result in an automatic F. 3. Your paper must have in-text citations--refer to your notes. This step is crucial; without it, you will be plagiarizing and will earn an F on your report. 4. Your paper must include MLA Works Cited page (Last page of the report). 5. Your final draft must be edited for spelling and mechanics; it should be error-free. Step 7: Create a visual presentation to present to the class The purpose of the presentation is to teach your classmates about your god, goddess, creature, myth, etc. Public speaking is a vital part of making it in the real world! Don t panic though, your presentation will be 2-5 minutes and must include the outlined information. The visual should depict the myth from Step 2. Examples of visuals Poster, Powerpoint, or Prezi Paintings (paper or canvas) Painted ceiling tiles (you must purchase a ceiling tile) Anything really please see me if you have another idea for a visual Grading Breakdown Participation during research times (Dates: )-Daily Grade Rewritten Narrative Myth (Due, end of class)-quiz Grade Outline with Works Cited (Due )-Quiz Grade Final Research Paper (Due )-2 MAJOR GRADES Visual Representation (Date(s) : ) Major Grade

7 How to Incorporate Parenthetical (in-text) Citations In MLA, in-text citations are called parenthetical references. They use the author's last name followed by the page number referenced in the work. The reference is placed in parentheses usually at the end of the sentence before the period. Because 372 lives have been claimed since 2010, blockades have been established (Smith 3-4). Each source in the Works Cited list at the end of the paper or article corresponds to a parenthetical reference in the text. Smith, Edward. Orientalism. New York: Vintage Books, Print. If the context makes it clear what work is being cited, only the page number need appear in the parentheses. For example, if the sentence already includes the author's name or you are citing the work again and it is obvious which work you are citing, only the page number is needed. Smith makes a similar argument in his 2012 article (3-4). Later, the protagonist of Jane Eyre proclaims, "I would always rather be happy than dignified" (413). If citing more than one work by the same author, put a comma after the author's name, add the title of the work (if brief) or a shortened version, and the page numbers. We should all try to "live in the Past, the Present, and the Future" (Dickens, A Christmas Carol 95). If the author's name is already in the sentence, just the title of the work and the page number are needed. We should all take Dickens's advice to "live in the Past, the Present, and the Future" (A Christmas Carol 95). We should all take Fred Martin s advice to never let another decide your own destiny ( The Little One ). Group or corporate authors. Use full name of group or a shortened form. (Modern Language Association 115) (MLA 115) Unknown Author. Use a few words of the title. (Remember the rules for Quotes vs. Italics) ("Recent innovations" 231) Two or three authors. Use the last names of each. A Christmas Carol is a book and must be italicized. The Little One is a short story and must be placed in quotations. There is no page for this source.
8 (Smith, Jones, and Brown 323) More than three authors. Give all the authors' last names or just use the first and "et al" for the rest. In any case, use the same form as the entry in your Works Cited list. (Bia, Pedreno, Small, Finch, Patterson 161) (Bia et al. 161) If the Works Cited list contains two or more authors with the same surname. In the parenthetical reference, include the first initial. (A. DeCarrera 213) If the initial is also the same, use the whole first name. (Annette DeCarrera 213) If the reference is to an exact quotation, the parenthetical reference is placed after the quote. It may be true that "the attitude of the observer is of primary importance" (Robertson 136). For exact quotations from sources without page numbers, use paragraph numbers, if available. If the work does not have page numbers or paragraph numbers, include in the text the name of the person that begins the corresponding entry in the works cited list, instead of using a parenthetical reference. For more information see MLA Handbook sections and (Smith para 17) Commentary Be sure to comment on your evidence. This may include your impressions of what you ve read, your opinions (without using the word I ), and, most of all, your explanation. Be thorough. Do not leave any questions unanswered. This means defining and explaining in detail everything you state. Your paper should be clear and free from all misunderstanding. Formatting an MLA Works Cited Page An MLA Works Cited page is completed on a page separate from the rest of the report. It cannot be added to the bottom of the page after your conclusion. It must have the following title: Works Cited. It must be centered. It must be in the same font as your paper, 12 pt. Times New Roman, and cannot be underlined, italicized, or put into quotation marks. The entries must be in alphabetical order and double-spaced like your report. If no author or editor is given, alphabetize each entry by the first word of the title. The entries are NOT numbered, nor are they bulleted. The entries must begin at the left margin and cannot be centered. If an entry is longer than one typed line, the second and all subsequent lines must follow a hanging indent.
9 Each entry must be correctly formatted and punctuated. You can t just make it up as you go along or write your own rules. Follow the MLA rules to the letter, if you ve any questions ask for help, but only after you have tried to find the answer for yourself! You must include entries for every source that you used to find your information. The whole page should be double-spaced just like your paper. Enter bibliographic information for BOOKS in the following order. 1. Author(s) last name, first name followed by a period; if there is a second author, list him/her as first name, then last name (see example for proper punctuation) 2. Title of chapter or part of book (if only part of the book is used) in quotation marks followed by a period. 3. Title of book italicized followed by a period 4. Place of publishing followed by a colon 5. Name of publisher followed by a comma 6. Year published followed by a period 7. Page numbers (only if it s a chapter of the book for example, the chapter that tells your myth or the chapter that tells about your god) for the entire piece, not just the pages you cited followed by a period. 8. Medium of publication Print followed by a period INTERNET SOURCES in the following order. 1. Author/editor name last name, first name followed by a period 2. Title of the article in quotation marks with a period inside of the last quotation mark 3. Title of the site or sponsoring organization italicized followed by a period 4. The date/year of the posting followed by a period 5. Medium of publication Web followed by a period 6.
