DUE ON TUESDAY, JULY 22ND:
Mandatory assignments:
--Finish the first draft of your final paper, which is due at the beginning of class next time.  Please recall the following assignment parameters from Day 1 of the course:
The final paper is…
  • about a topic that you choose (professor-approved) related in some way to the course theme (“Heroism: Finding Your Inner Hero”)
  • argumentative/thesis-driven
  • research-based, citing a variety of credible sources including the following:
    • 4 peer-reviewed/scholarly journal articles (none prior to 2003)
    • 1 Internet source (credible and not prior to 2007)
    • 1 book or reference book (discretionary)
    • 1 periodical (e.g., Time or Newsweek) and/or a quality documentary (discretionary)
  • the result of an inquiry-based research process with deadlines
  • supported by library instruction three times throughout the research process
What you submit next class will be scored using the rubric received in class on Day 4, and the score that you receive will be incorporated in the 20% chunk of your overall GPA devoted to your outlines and draft.  I am expecting your absolute best effort in the form of a paper within the 7-10 page range.  BRING A TOTAL OF THREE HARD COPIES OF YOUR PAPER.
--Read pages 19-51 of They Say/I Say with the following focusing question in mind: How can this information help me craft a meaningful paper for submission next class?  As you finish your draft, incorporate your learnings from TS/IS within what you write.  Be prepared to discuss next class how these pages helped you write a strong paper.   
Optional assignment:
--Look ahead on the syllabus and see what's coming.  Staying as far ahead as possible is a wise move in both your summer program and college in general.
