NEW PAPER DUE DATE

As discussed in class...


The second paper (ADDICTION) can be turned in two ways:

1. You can turn in your final draft (with pre-work) tomorrow in class.

OR

2. You can email it to me so that I receive it by Sunday at 9am.

Offering this extended time will maximize our opportunities to turn rough drafts into final ones, meet/email with me, and/or meet with Helen.


Please note: If I do not receive your paper by the time due, it will be counted as late--no exceptions.

Also please note: In Thursday's class, we will begin our third unit (LITERATURE), so please be ready to dive in!

APA Citation Format

...as discussed in class, this paper must use APA citation format when you use information from your 2 (or more) sources (from the class readings/sites).

Here is some worthwhile information--check it out...

No Office Hours Tomorrow (Tuesday)

Tomorrow, Tuesday, 2/10, I will not be having office hours. Please email me with any questions at all. I will, of course, be available for questions immediately following class.

Thanks!

Revised Paper #2 Schedule UPDATED

Please note that there is an adjustment to the schedule listed on your syllabus.

Here's what to expect, and what is due, over the next two weeks:

Tues, 2/10: Reading Response, first readings in Addiction Unit
Thurs, 2/12: Know your topic, and bring source readings (have notes from each)
Tues, 2/17: Rough Draft (2 copies) due in class for workshopping
Thurs, 2/19: Final Draft due--start of unit #3


Thanks for updating your schedules!

Additional Readings for Addiction Unit

To enhance your course reader, I have located a number of readings online.

There is a wide variety in style and approach here--some are short little articles, others are in-depth research. Give yourself plenty of time to go through them, and remember to actively read. If you find yourself growing tired with one, take a break, and come back to it. I will expect that you have read all of them by class on Thursday, 2/12--a reading response will be due on that day. Since the readings are longer, the reading response should be 2-3 pages instead of the usual 1-2, and can be about as many of the articles as you like (1, 2, or even all of them).
