Assignment Instructions
For your weekly reading question assignments, here are the general rules for full credit:
Answers should be thoughtful, well-developed, and in complete sentences. Grammar and spelling counts too, so please pay attention to these elements!
Each answer should be at least three sentences long, minimum. In terms of word count, I’m looking for 50-60 words per answer unless otherwise indicated.
Label each question set, and number the questions accordingly.
Do not include the questions themselves…just the answers.
Your Turnitin match number cannot exceed 20%. If you submit and get a report that exceeds 20%, you can look at the details of the report, edit your work, and resubmit BEFORE the deadline. Any submitted work that exceeds 20% after the deadline must receive a zero. See the Turnitin video below for more details.
If you submit your weekly assignments by 11:59pm on Fridays, I can guarantee you some feedback before the Sunday deadlines and an opportunity to resubmit if necessary. However, if you submit over the weekend, I can’t make the same guarantee and you might be stuck with whatever score you get come Monday morning!
