Your assignment for Monday is to complete your final Summary Paper. If you were not in class on Monday the 21st to peer review, you’ll need to have at least one person (preferably the Writing Center) look over your paper and provide feedback. Those who were in class for the peer review, please be sure to keep in mind the revisions made by your reviewer. Again, here is what you should be looking for.
1. Was the paper organized chronologically?
2. Was the argument polished, and did it flow well?
3. Did you avoid “me, my, I, he said”?
4. Is the paper free of spelling / grammatical errors?
5. Do you avoid personal opinion on the subject?
6. Is the work introduced at the beginning of the summary?
You will also have your first portfolio due Monday. Remember that the papers should be turned in in a soft cover pocket folder. It should include the following elements:
1. *Cover letter (more info follows)
2. Summary rough draft
3. Summary final draft
4. Printed blog posts
5. “Science Courses Key” ethos, pathos, logos, claims, reasons, assumptions
6. Letter to Catherine Ford
If you don’t have these papers with you, I’m still reviewing them and will return them at the beginning of class Monday.
COVER LETTER:
Your cover letter should be one page, SINGLE - spaced (double spacing wouldn't allow as much room as you'll need), 12 pt. Times New Roman font, with 1 " margins. It should be in correct cover letter format, which incorporates the following:
Top Left:
Your Name
Date
Course Info
(double space)
Dear Professor Robinson:
Type your letter here, with double spaces between paragraphs only.
(Double space)
Sincerely,
Your Name
The cover letter serves as a sort of summary for your unit experience. It is also the written equivalent of my first impression of your portfolio. Here, you should touch briefly on the content of each of the assignments. Most importantly, you should discuss how you feel this unit will aid you in accomplishing your overarching goals for the course, as well as your future writing goals.
