Final Improvements

Open your Summary/ Eval/ Response paper in Turnitin (in Moodle). NOW you can click on the middle button and see comments I have made, and see some proofreading by the software.

You must open another copy of your paper to make changes based on what you see in TurnItIn.

Use EasyBib to create a Works Cited page.

For your daybook today, find one sentence using coordination and one using subordination from your own paper, and copy them down.

Check your daybook the list of errors for a paper returned to you. What should you look for in THIS paper?

Homework:

1. The final version of your Summary/ Evaluation / Response paper is due tomorrow WITH ALL TAN SHEETS. Bring all drafts as well.

2. TWFTD:  problem in OED (read DOWN).

Draft #2 of Summary/ Evaluation/ Response

Your Solo #2 is returned.

Questions:

1. After looking at your scores and the comments, what is one strength of this paper?

2. What is a major weakness?

3. What is one thing you need to do better as you write your next summary/response?

We look at an example.

You upload your Draft #2 into TurnItIn in Moodle.

You will get into the same groups and read/comment on Draft 2 of your Summary/Eval/Response papers.

Homework:

1. Look at the comments on your paper and work on the final version of this paper, due Wednesday. We will use TurnItIn during class tomorrow, so there will be time for questions/issues.
