We will also have a scheduled day or two in the library to review research strategies, and we will use the materials you find there when we work as a group on quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. During the semester, students will make five conferences with me to discuss writing. To receive credit, schedule in advance. Please schedule no more than one a week. The last day of class is the last day for a conference.
Attendance Participating actively in class projects and discussions requires attendance.
If students miss more than five class sessions, they will be advised to drop the course. Guard absences carefully. Classroom Atmosphere Good writing classroom have an energy, a buzz, a hum, and air of creativity and reflection. Mayfield Publishing Company, 1998. Troyka, Lynn Quitman.
