Students in WR 122 will be required to complete four kinds of activities: weekly in-class writing, two (2) papers, a final essay exam, and participation in class activities. (We may also have a quiz or two on topics to be announced.) All activities should be completed and submitted before or on the due date. Please submit your written work typed or word processed. Remember to check for spelling and grammar, as these will effect your grade. See the Grading Criteria for more information. We will have a chance to discuss your progress during the term in our Student-Instructor conferences. Students have the option to revise graded papers for extra credit.
