Reminder of Assignments

Do not forget to turn in your summary essay based on an essay from Baldwin's The Fire Next Time today via Internet: coasabirenglish5@gmail.com

You have two assignments due March 5. The other assignment due is Tuesday, March 5, is Exercise 2I Making Inferences about Visual Images in the Media 46-47: 2 or 3 7th Ed.; 42-43: 2 or 3 6th Ed.

The other assignment due is a summary of a scholarly article or an article using the COA Library Databases for Tuesday, March 5. Bring in the article and the summary as well to share.

Other To Dos:

Check the assignment update handout which I gave to students on Thursday. Bring your Hacker to class on Tuesday. No one responded to the Argumentation Video, this was not an optional assignment.

Today's Presentation Assignment

Students are to also respond to the Library Assignment Cyber-Assignment which is posted below. Make sure you use examples to discuss Professor Jane McKenna's presentation. Talk about the assignment, the handouts, her goals for the presentation, what you learned about evaluating websites, how one can avoid plagiarizing, how to search the COA library databases, other resources available on the Library website such as the virtual professor.

I also gave students another handout re: Grading Rubric for English 1A. I will give students other rubrics for the three arguments as we complete them.

I do not keep the specifics of assignments in my head, which is why I write them on the board and post them here. Read the posts. If something isn't clear in the posts let me know. If something I post is unclear, tell me. This blog is to be a resource.
