Working on Stage IV!

My cat! Because I couldn't think of a meme to go with this blogpost

On Wednesday, your stage IV draft II is due, and we'll be scheduling conferences in class to discuss your Stage IV essays. Be sure to come to class ON TIME, or you'll be left with whatever appointment no one picked.

Before we get into that, you'll need to write a reflective cover letter (addressed to me) about your Stage IV essay. Please address the following in your letter (not as bullet points >:O)

• Briefly describe your research project. What are you investigating and why?
• What do you think you got right about this assignment, taking into account the four points I'm looking for (original claim, inquiry (research), discourse (connections) and citations? 
• What did your peers have to say about your essay? What did you revise based on their suggestions?
• What do you feel still needs work in your essay?
• What would you like feedback on or help with?

STUDIO WORK

I'm giving you all studio time to work on your collaborative projects. Report to the studio. If you'd like to work someplace else, just let me know. Be sure to sign in!


Looking ahead: Next week, we will NOT be having class. You are only required to come for your scheduled appointment, and you'll be meeting in my office. Use this time to 1. work on revising your stage IV and wrapping up any primary research and 2. work on your collaborative project. I will post the conferencing schedule up on the blog before Monday.

Stage IV Draft III is due on Monday, November 18th.
