12.8 Grades, Presentations, and Final

NOTE:  If you want feedback on your research essay, the draft needs to be in the ENG3039 email box as an attachment by the end of the day today.  I will return the drafts with comments by Monday, and we will have an in-class workshop on revision.

We discussed the "weight" for the different assignments in calculating your grades.  They are as listed in the previous post.

Final:  We also discussed what would be included in the final, and I directed you to the study guide as a frame for preparing for the exam.  The question in the study guide cover the material that will be on the exam.  I will group questions covering similar material into 4 different categories = and you will be required to answer one question from each category.  The length and content of the answer will be determined by the question.  I will present the exam questions on Monday, and we will talk through the criteria for evaluating the exam. They will also be posted on the blog after the discussion.

Julianna and Catherine gave presentations on their research projects - the rest of you will be evaluated on teh basis of your blog post.

For next week:
On Monday you will workshop your research essays, and I will distribute the questions for the Final Exam.  Your Exam is due on Monday, December 19.

On Thursday  you will turn in your portfolio, and we will wrap up any details for the course..
Have a great weekend.
