Assignment 5: The OWL at Purdue

I chose the Online Writing Lab at Purdue for my site for Assignment five. I found this information very useful and helpful. When I was in high school, I wish I knew about this particular site. It appears to have the answers to any English related question. I especially like how all the information is in one place. Purdue also keeps the information current. The university has also renovated their site to help their targeted audience.

I think this site will help my students with grammar and the writing process. As my students are writing papers, they can go online to this site as a reference or to get answers to last minute questions. I think my students would appreciate this online resource.

As a future teacher, I would consider using some of their PowerPoint presentations in my lesson plans for grammar. They also provide handouts that I could give my students a hard copy of the material discussed in class. I was extremely impressed with this site!!! You can access the OWL at Purdue yourself by going to http://owl.english.purdue.edu/.
