Class Practical Project

As I indicate in my Syllabus, each member of the class will produce a written project during the course of the semester. This assignment will count for 10% of your final score and will be graded on a pass/fail basis, subject to the following RULES:

1. Content: Choose any topic that has been or will be covered during the class, as described in the reading assignments notes section. No research needs to be conducted outside your edited class materials and class notes. This is a creative-writing project. I want you to produce a simple essay about a subject that we have or will discuss in our class. Imagination and good humor are strongly encouraged. When referring to our materials, please cite specific pages in parenthesis. I will assume that "(p. ##)" is a citation to a page in our edited materials, therefore, do not use a full-citation format.

2. Length: No less than two, no more than three typed letter-size pages. Maximum double spaced. One inch margins all around.

3. When, Where and How: DUE DATE: I will hand out a schedule later in the semester. ALL ESSAYS MUST BE TURNED IN ON OR BEFORE 5:00 P.M., on Wednesday, November 14, 2007. The essays must be turned in to me, before or after class or in my office, or to my secretary, Betty Donaldson, in the secretarial pool office. Early submission or submssion by email are fine.
