Just Another Visual Aid: Citation Roadmap
I’m a designing mad man this week! I had a few students who didn’t quite get the concept that citations for a rule statement should be ordered by weight of authority (usually) and that subsequent memo sections should maintain that order. So, here’s another visual aid.
I think a new series is in the works. Just Another Visual Aid.

I crafted this in PowerPoint and saved it as a pdf for my students. You are welcome to use it, but please credit me.
Rule-Statement-FunnelNifty Office Features: =RAND()
Need to randomize a list, such as your class roster to assign groups? Use excel and the =RAND() formula!
- Add the list of names to one column.
- In the first cell of the next column, add the forumla =RAND().
- Copy the formula down the column. (Double-click the fill handle.)
- Each name now has a random number.
- Sort the column with numbers. It doesn’t really matter whether you do it by largest or smallest number.




And VOILA! Your list of names are now sorted randomly.
