    Select the “Preview” option for those examples (hint: the A student did not submit this assignment).

    There are no restrictions on source for this assignment (however, I wouldn’t suggest using an encyclopedia or wiki as a source unless you want to look like a grade schooler).

    So a blog on the subject started by a guy who’s researched it would be ok?

    I don’t see this “preview” option anywhere. I’m becoming quite frustrated

    There is a drop down thing next to each item on the page. Click that and select “Preview”.

    I hate Blackboard too ;-)

    I was surprised to see you even using blackboard this semester, after the awful things you said about it in the fall.

    The examples gave me a good idea concerning what the assignment needs to be. Helped me to realize that it is not as hard as I initially thought. Which is really good!!!
