Unit 7

Well lets see, hm mm, how do I feel about peer reviews? I think they can give you a new avenue to take your writing to, and give you thoughts or ideas that you may have overlooked. As for any AH. HA. moments, well, maybe some Oh Crap, I should have done it this way moments is more like it. Oh yeah and maybe a couple of duh, I knew that moments as well. Now for surprises, not really, a lot of my paper is based on experience with a disease, I more or less searched for the information that backed up what was learned from group and one on one counseling sessions along with wise words from our family physician.

For those of you who haven't already read Sam's blog, do yourself a favor and check out her Million Tear Drops. Anyone with kids in the military should know it is tough to let them go. Recently I had to send our adopted son back to Afghanistan, it is no easy task.

Unit 6

Well, what can I say, wow unit 6 already! As far as what I have been dealing with over the past six weeks, excitement about seeing our adopted son! What a great weekend! The rest of it has been work, more work, school, more work. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy the overtime pay, just not the overtime. Thank goodness for the solitude of working on homework, otherwise I don't believe I would get any time for myself. I hope that everyone's papers are going as expected. I wish everyone the best! Good Luck!

Okay, well, to start off this week has been unbelivable! Our adopted son who is in the Army surprised us on Friday! He is on R and R from Afganistan. Unfortunately he has to go back there on the 21st. Then the library would not let me retrieve any of my saved lists. Luckily I had written them down, now I am just attempting to get all the information back that I had. What a bummer! Oh well, deep breath, and then scream. AAAHHH feeling much better.

Citations!
If we don't use citations we are not giving credit where credit is due.

As far as plagiarism in the professional setting, this happens more than people realize. When a supervisor takes credit for what a person under them does, this is plagiarism. This is a situation that goes on a lot where I work. A co-worker and I do attempt to give the proper credit where it is deserved, and our superior, whom is over our supervisor is aware of the situation. This is what we have done to make sure that the appropriate people know who is responsible for a particular idea, or the work that has been done.
When plagiarism happens, it is important to notify either a supervisor, instructor of official in charge who it is that actually deserves the credit.

Sometimes it does not pay to get mad.
