The Home Stretch!

 
We're almost there!

We're almost there, folks!

Over the Thanksgiving break, you'll want to begin looking at your portfolio and making necessary revisions to your papers. Here are the components required for a successful portfolio project:





Final Portfolio Requirements
Copies of each graded essay – (5 pts total)

1.     Descriptive
2.     Process Analysis
3.     Definition
4.     Cause and Effect
5.     Argumentative
If you’ve misplaced the copy I gave you with comments, simply write a ½ page discussion explaining in detail the revisions you’ve made.
Revised Copies of your essays – make suggested changes and any other you feel necessary (5 pts total)
1.     Descriptive
2.     Process Analysis
3.     Definition
4.     Cause and Effect
5.     Argumentative
Include a one page reflection on the course. Here are some questions you may choose to address in your response (5 pts).
What did you discover this semester about writing and the writing process?
How will you use this information in future coursework and your career?
Do you think the course was successful? What worked, and what didn’t? What could I have done better?
This will be due on December 9th, our last class day!
Note: We WILL have class on December 2nd. We are primarily meeting just to hand back and discuss the argumentative essays and reflecting on what we've learned. This will also be your last opportunity to turn in any missed essays (for half credit) and ask any last minute questions. Be sure to be in class! I will be taking attendance for a daily grade, and we will be doing an activity.
