Business in the news

Choose five (5) of the articles on the Business in the news slide from class in Week 4 (all about housing)

Look them up online and write their end-text references in a Word document

Now format them as a reference list (refer to the 2-page guide to creating an APA reference list that is on our LMS in the Week 4 block). Basics are:

Title should be "References"
Double spaced text
Ordered alphabetically by first author's surname
Apply a hanging indent

Double check them all, and make sure the links work

Write a paragraph about an aspect of the housing situation (150 - 200 words) - there are a trillion different perspectives or issues to choose from
Remember not to simply summarise an article, but rather skim a few articles and think for yourself what you want to write about
If you refer to evidence or ideas in one or more article, include an in-text citation and an end-text reference at the end (advanced skill so give it a go, no penalties for doing it wrong)

You can write in first person, say if you are talking about your own experiences
