  • Remember to sign up for FINAL CONFERENCES (they will be held in my office, 002 Rish Hall). For attending a 15-minute conference you'll get two days of attendance credit (because we will have NO in-class meetings next week). 

 

Agenda


 


Rough Draft Workshop 

* NOTE: We did not work with artifacts in our research papers this year (instead, we created sudden fiction). 

 

For the Ethnic Literature Rough Draft Workshop, begin by copying and pasting the rubric below onto YOUR wiki page with the rough draft of your paper. Remember, if BOTH the paper and the rubric are directly pasted to the wiki, it's a LOT easier for your reviewers.

 

Name: (reviewer 1)_______________________________  (reviewer 2)_______________________________
