Therefore, all assignments must be completed using a word processor or program capable of developing the assignment formats as needed in this course. There are many computer labs on campus, both IBM and Mac, which are available to students. Please see the instructors for locations and services in these labs. Projects will be evaluated based on format, content, spelling, grammar, visual appeal and adherence to formats. The guidelines and deadlines are essential.
All projects are due during class on the date due.
Late assignments will be devalued by five percent per day, including weekends. Succinct communications is a keyword to success. Each student will prepare a news release for a local newspaper regarding an environmental or natural resource topic. The release should be about 250 to 500 words long. Evaluation will be based on quality, interest, completeness of the message, and specific attention to the required format.
