You will probably find the English as a Second Language section the most helpful. This section is divided up into 12 sub-sections: 1) Using Articles (A/An/The), 2) Adjectives with Count and Non-Count Nouns, 3) Count and Non-Count Nouns (+ exercise), 4) Countable and Uncountable Nouns, 5) Appositives, 6) Verbals: Gerunds, Participles, and Infinitives, 7) Prepositions of Direction: To, On(to), In(to), & 8) Prepositions of Locations: At, In, On, Verb Endings, Verb Chart. After you have looked at the English as a Second Language section, be sure to look at the remaining four sections: Parts of Speech, Sentence Construction, Punctuation, & Spelling. These sections contain many useful exercises. www.devry-phx.edu/lrnresrc/dowsc/integrty.htm • How do you verify that the source is reliable? • How do you document the information you have discovered? • What are current issues and laws concerning intellectual property in the electronic age? http://sti.larc.nasa.gov/html/Chapt3/Chapt3-TOC.html This is an on-line punctuation manual written by NASA, no less. It is a good reference for rules to use with each type of punctuation mark. It is not, however, interactive so there are no practice activities |
