If any portion of the termpaper, or any other essay in the class, is plagiarized, the student will receive an F grade for the semester. The student is required to write an organized, developed and well written essay in an two hour period. No notes or outlines will be permitted into the room. The student must write a satisfactory English 101 final essay to pass the class. The final essay will be graded on the basis of 15 points.
All essays are to be completed on a computer or typed.
It is highly recommended that students utilize modern technology in the writing process. This includes programs that enhance vocabulary, assist in spelling, and contribute to development of ideas. Students must have the self-discipline to complete the reading and writing assignments according to the schedule in this syllabus. They also agree to contact me at least every week by phone to inform me of the progress of their work. Students are requested to come to three class meetings.
