Review / Input the Codes from the Homework
For homework, I asked you to code 2 jobs I passed out in Tuesday’s class:
Navigating the Spreadsheet
Here is a link to the Google Spreadsheet.
Inputting Codes to Google Docs
I didn’t clarify this last class–so don’t worry if you haven’t done this already. You should be coding your job ads in Google Docs, selecting the relevant text and then inserting the code as a comment (Insert > Comment).
Here is a link to the corpus / google docs.
Inputting Codes to Our Collective Spreadsheet
After you have inputted the codes into the Google Doc, you should add them to our collective spreadsheet. And be sure to add your initials in the “submitted by” column.
Here’s a link to the spreadsheet.
I would also like you to include a link from the spreadsheet to the job ad google doc.
Instructions on how to link from the spreadsheet to a specific job ad:
- BEFORE you submit your codes, you need to make a link to the job ad you will code. And you need to insert your codes into that document as comments.
- To create a link, open the job ad. Click on it from inside the 2020 folder; then click “Open with Google Docs,” found at the top of the black document preview screen.
- When the document opens, look in the top-right corner and you will see the blue “SHARE” button. Click that button.
- A dialogue box will open. Click get shareable link. MAKE SURE THE LINK IS SET SO THAT “ANYONE WITH THE LINK CAN EDIT. Copy that link.
- Now return to the Google Sheet. Select the title of the job ad (you can either click on the cell or triple click the cell–watch me). Once the cell or text is selected, press the chain link icon (or press CTRL or OPEN APPLE + K). Paste the link in and hit Apply. Presto, chango, welcome to the 21st century.
Reviewing Codes
With our time remaining today, I would like to begin reviewing codes. Identify a job ad in the collective spreadsheet with codes. Locate that google doc in the corpus. Read and code the job ad, checking whether you agree with the codes already in the document and keeping track of any new codes you identify.
Steps:
- First, examine codes that are already present on the ad. If you agree with all of the existing codes, then great. Scan the document to make sure there aren’t any missing codes. If you are confident that all the codes are correct and none are missing, then head into the spreadsheet and change the line color to green. Make sure you put in your initials as a reviewer.
- If you believe the submitter missed a code, then insert it yourself as a comment. If you believe the submitter might have mis-coded something, then leave them a comment. In either case, go into the spreadsheet and change the line color to orange. And, again, be sure to include your initials as a reviewer.
- Submitters will go back into the spreadsheet and review any orange jobs with their initials.
Homework
A reminder that there’s two things due before Tuesday’s Class:
- Read the Herrick essay (with Canvas post, the essay is in the Files section)
- Code 10 jobs
