Research Paper: First Draft Due
In-Class Writing Workshop
Print out and bring the first draft of your research paper to class for an in-class writing workshop. First, you will participate in a plagiarism workshop taught by a librarian professor. Next, you will participate in a peer-editing activity. Once you have completed the peer-editing activity, I will review and edit your essay. We have Library Room 200 for our entire class period so everyone will be able to use their “wait” time to work on their research papers. Attendance guidelines will be in effect and attendance will be taken at this class, which will meet from 6:00 to 8:40 PM.
The final draft of your research paper is due on or before Thursday, May 13, 2010, at 6:00 PM, and will be submitted electronically to english102wcc@gmail.com.

Final Examination
All students are required to attend the final examination. There are no opportunities to make up the final examination. Any student who does not attend the final examination will fail the course (WCC Policy).
You will be given a short story to read and evaluate. The short story will take about 20-30 minutes to read; you will then have an hour and a half to write about the story within the context of “The Methods of Fiction” (pages 9-11 of our text) and the archetypes handout we have used throughout the semester (available online at: http://www.flagler.k12.fl.us/media/documents/02053085-6ca6-495a-aa6a-ecb27a004a9b.pdf).
In other words, in writing your final examination you will be discussing:
ª Tone
ª Plot
ª Characterization
ª Setting
ª Point of View
ª Irony
ª Theme(s)
ª Archetypes
You may bring the following with you to the final examination:
ª A paper dictionary/thesaurus (no electronic devices will be permitted). I will also bring a dictionary/thesaurus for everyone to use.
ª A printout of the archetypes handout.
If you have any questions about the final few weeks, please send me an e-mail at english102wcc@gmail.com.
