I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving...now that we're past the holiday, we're really in the final stretch for class. With that in mind, I'd like to take a moment to go over the schedule for the last two weeks. (Also, if you missed class on Tuesday), this will fill you in on what you need to do for this coming Tuesday).
Tuesday, 11/28: Come to class knowing which essay you will focus on in the third paper. Also, written on a piece of paper, bring in a one-sentence summary of the author's position on his/her subject. In class, we will complete a "Building Blocks" exercise designed to help you with your Rough Draft.
Thursday, 11/30: Bring 2 copies of your rough draft to class, where we will workshop (like with previous papers). In addition to the workshop, I will give information about the Common Final.
Tuesday, 12/6: FINAL DRAFT of the third paper is due. Like with the second paper, I want the Final Draft stapled on its own, and then all pre-work stapled separately. During class, we will take a "practice common final," so be ready to dive right in.
Thursday, 12/8: I will give back suggestions for the common final based on your practice exam. Also, we will complete Course Evaluations and some self-assessment work. Come to class with the grades for your first two papers.
Also, I will be adding extended office hours over these two weeks--announcements will be made in class.
