Boringest Post Ever

I’ve been putting together the list of works cited for that last draft of the prospectus for most of the evening; hunting down information for sources that I’ve since returned to the library or had only in photocopy form. Tiresome drudgery.

Still, on the off chance anyone with an interest in similar issues might actually want to have a look at the list, and to show that yes, I actually have had a productive day, I’ll put it up here. (I’ll also note that I sometimes — let me point out that this is rare — engage in the shameful and horribly geekish habit of going straight to the bibliography when picking up an interesting-looking book.)

Has anybody out there used EndNote? ‘Cause with this kind of work, I might be willing to check out the university store’s academic prices on software if folks say it’s good.

    Just to let you know, Endnote saved my butt some serious time when I was doing my thesis. Watching page after page of citations miraculously appear in nearly-perfect APA format was one of the most pleasant moments of the whole thesis slogfest. It’s worth the money, in my opinion, though I think there may be some cheaper options on the market now.

    An impressive list of sources, Mike. I’ve never used bibliographic software so I’m no help on that score.

    National TYCA of NCTE has a Teacher/Scholar committee working on a draft document (to be presented to TYCA Executive Committee in San Antonio), and I’m doing the bibliography section. I believe the only overlap between that list and yours is Bowles and Gintis, but not the same book. The divide between university-based scholars and community college-based scholars remains a chasm. We’re hoping our work will raise greater awareness in university research programs.

    And I often read bibliographies first–don’t think it’s geeky, but a quick way to see what knowledge base a given writer is working from.

    Zip — thanks for the recommendation; Derek also recommends Scribe, which looks like it might be worth a try.

    John — that lack of overlap is startling, to say the least. I did manage to find a used copy of Tinberg’s book online, and I think it might help me to make a critique in my middle chapters of the things that composition, as a discipline, doesn’t like to talk about.

    FWIW, a colleague of mine here at Big State U who is also interested in class issues in composition is planning on focusing his dissertation on two-year colleges.
