Dear English 1050 Perspective Members,
First and foremost, welcome to this class! In class you have many assignments that gives you a chance to be creative! If you are not creative you will not succeed in this class! You are graded on creativity and uniqueness! Someone of you might this this is a strictly writing papers type of class! That is not the case! in this class, every project entitles you to have a different genre. Genre meaning do each project in a different format, whether poem, song, paper, use your imagination! The hardest projects I came in counter with were.. Wait, none of them were that hard! Did I ace every project because they were not hard?? No. Like I said before, the more creative you are, and the more you do, the better your grade will be. Some advice to help you succeed in this class:
1. Come to class everyday! Everyday you miss is minus 15 points. You have three absences you are allowed to have, so freebies. If you have perfect attendance then it is plus 45 points. So yes extra credit!
2. Do every extra credit opportunity there is to offer! There are no tests, so your grade comes from all of your blogs and projects!
3. Do a blog post for every class, the more blog post you have the more points you will receive!
4. When completing projects, make sure you turn in all ideas, rough drafts, outlines, EVERYTHING that helped you finish your project!
5. You are granted one do over project! Basically this means, if you didn't do go on a project, with the comments provided, re-do the project! It will replace the old project with the better grade!
6. Have fun, this is not your typical English class! There is so much room to be creative. You are given guidelines on a project, and from there it is all you!
WELCOME TO ENGLISH 1050, ENJOY YOUR SEMESTER!
