Outlining

We will begin learning about outlining in class this week. I want you to make sure your outlines follow the guidelines I give you in class exactly. You will be writing alphanumeric outlines. Remember that the format follows these characters, in this order:

Roman Numerals

Capital Letters

Arabic Numerals

Lowercase Letters

Also please remember that your outlines must be typed, double spaced, with a title centered at the top of the page. I am attaching a sample outline for you to refer to as you write yours.

See you in class!

Week 7

Hello students! 

This week we will be learning about the writing process. This week's assignment is to get started on your first major writing assignment, which will be due week 9 and will be 15% of your total grade for the course. 

Next week (week 8), please bring to class: your pre-writing, outline, rough draft, self-editing sheet and peer-editing sheet to class. DO NOT FILL OUT THE SELF OR PEER EDITING SHEETS YET! We will do these together IN CLASS next week! Everything else should be completed before class.

The peer-editing and self-editing sheets for this assignment are pages 198-199 in the textbook.

See you in class!
