source?

Dear moderators,
Is it enough to write the source in the description of the ws or it must be also in the ws. I added the source to the description only because everytime i try to update the ws i only get error message.
Thank you |

Hello,
i �m not a moderator, but maybe I can help.
Let �s say you found on a great text on a website, and you want to use it in a ws. It is true that you have to mention the source of this text - unless you edited it so much that no one can say you simply copied it. But mentioning the source is not enough I think. You should also add a couple of tasks (reading activity, follow-up works) to do with this text.
By the way, I think it �s better to add the source in your ws and in your description, so it �s clear for everyone, and also because when people download your work, they won �t keep your description, they will only keep your ws... so if they want to look at the source, they will just have to look at your ws!
At least that �s what I do...
moderators, do you agree?

You have got a point and I totally agree with you. The problem is I added the sources to the description because i tried to update the ws many times. All i got was an error message. Anyway I will keep trying
Merci |

I second ELOJOLIE on that - when using texts in ws, it �s really a good idea to name the source in the ws itself. We can always look it up and edit the text the way we want.
Another question is editable ws - I prefer these because it allows me to change its content in order to suit my students � needs (or level) better. Some members, though, are too protective about their work or the pictures used - since they had to pay for the latter. It �s fair enough, but frustrating for other users. |

I had also some problems updating a ws, so I had to delete it and reupload it... but be careful, if you do that, don �t forget to add REUPLOADED in the description... and you will lose the points you won with this ws...
I hope you will be able to update it, otherwise just add the source in the description, it should be fine!!!
take care
