MEST 4 Xmas Task #2

The following needs to be done by 13C and completed by the day we return after the holiday: 3rd January 2011...

ADDITIONAL BOOK READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY (SO FAR)

As you know, a detailed bibliography is crucial for the top grades in the coursework. Please refer to the Essential Reading List which contains titles of 45 of the most important books for the Critical Investigation, all of which are either in the school library or media suite.

Those underlined are the twenty most important but, obviously, not all of the texts on this list will be directly relevant for you...you'll need to spend a fair amount of time searching through them (especially the contents and indexes) to find the key quotes and ideas that will impress the examiners.

You must include references to quite a few of these books if you want an A or B so borrow/buy these books and read them over Christmas: one/person from the Media Suite and you MUST sign them out with Mr Babu and you MUST bring them back the day we return after the holiday).

Then please include the following in a blog posting...
  • Author-Year-Title-Place-Publisher info;
  • Quotes (+ Page References) from the book that can be linked to your study;
  • A short explanation of each one explaining how it is relevant to you.
Finally, post up on your blog a Complete Bibliography (So Far) to include ALL the books you currently have quotes from. It MUST contain at least TEN different books.
