Note: Completing this will take
a while, so give yourself enough time.
When you hand in each out-of-class assignment, you will
turn in not only the final revision, but all of the writing you did for
that assignment. This provides me with a clear view of the path you
took to get to your final revision. Put this work in a manila folder
with your name, section, and the assignment written clearly on the tab
of the folder. Each folder you turn in should contain the following six
parts -- along with one extra step. From top to bottom the parts should
follow this order:
- Reflecting: (Right
on top) Answer the following three questions: 1) what
are the two most important things you learned about your subject/World
literature from writing this essay? 2) how did the research affect your
thinking/essay? Type this on a separate sheet of paper.
- Final revision: the
final, revised version of the essay. Follow sample MLA format essay
(also on Course Documents page) for format. (This, my friends, is a
no-brainer: take the sample essay in one hand, and your essay in the
other and make your essay match the layout of name, line spacing, page
numbering, etc. from the sample essay). All of the essays handed in
need to have a title Be sure to proofread carefully -- as the writer of
the paper you are responsible for any grammatical or typographical
errors.
- Works Cited Page: Be
sure to include correctly formatted Work Cited page. (See “Citing
Sources”)
- Invention/pre-writing:
numerous pages of rough, unpolished invention writing for that
particular paper.
- Drafts: at least one
or two rough, exploratory drafts, and in any event, all of the drafts
associated with that essay. They must be the original copies and
labeled with the assignment title and draft number.
- Research: all notes,
copies of articles, etc. associated with essay.
- Email final draft to me:
Using your own or the college's email account, send me an electronic
copy of your final draft.
Make sure you have each of these before you hand in your
paper. Hate to be a stickler, but . . .your paper will not be accepted
and will be considered a "late paper" if you do not include all of the
items noted above.
REMEMBER: You must make an appointment so we can review
your rough draft before you can hand it in.
