Midterms
Today we completed the Synthetica essay and Grammar Exam 1. Some students came to class late and were turned away. If you missed the exam, you have 1 week to make arrangements to make it up. My office hour: Tuesday, March 23, 10:30-12 in L-236, is the best option.
We then worked on the Initial Planning Sheet and outlines for the essay due next week.
Class is canceled Monday, March 22. Professor Sherron Smith's granddaughter died last week and the funeral is Monday, March 22. I am going.
Write your essay. I suggest students give each other peer reviews. You can do this electronically. Review in SPHE MLA In-text citations, Author and pages number in parenthesis, Author in Signal phrase exercises, paraphrase introductions, Signal phase structure: Simple vs. Complex, and Creating Context, plus the corresponding exercises.
We will have our peer reviews on Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Bring your essay in an electronic form. Students will comment on each other's essays.
