This page gives you:
(1) a quick look at
all 17 weeks and their calendar dates, and
(2) then a detailed
listing, week by week, of what is due and what we will do in class.
This weekly assignment list
is long, but it is very detailed and, once you get to know it,
fairly simply to read. Come back to this page each week to find
out what is due both in the current and the following week.
Assignments are always due for the week given. They are due on the
2nd class day of that week. So, for example, in "Week 7" below,
the assignments listed there are actually due - and should be
turned in - on the 2nd class day of Week 7.

WHAT IS THE WEEKLY SCHEDULE
OF ASSIGNMENTS, WEEK BY WEEK?
Note: The dates and weeks above are
for this course only
. Other teachers may use
different date-and-week systems.
PLEASE PRINT THIS ENTIRE WEB PAGE AND BRING IT TO OUR CLASSROOM MEETINGS.
These ENG 1114 ASSIGNMENTS are due by Thursday Class:
Wk. 1a. Write about Eng 1114 Book
Readings (Five
Chimneys, Girls and Sex, girl
soldier, Half the Sky, Lucky, Nickel and Dimed,
A Problem from Hell,
or Slave):
For this first week, get your book
purchased/borrowed, and start reading it for the Wk. 2 reading and writing
assignment. The Wk. 2 reading and writing assignment is due in the 2nd
week of class.)
Do NOT buy all the books. Just buy one or two, as follows:
1. Choose just one of the eight books listed on this website's
Textbooks and Readings page. Read the descriptions of each of the eight
books, and even look at the online samples of their beginnings, if you like,
to carefully choose a book you will be able to like and research for a number
of weeks.
2. If you choose a short
book (such as girl soldier or Lucky), then you'll have to choose a
second book now or later to read in the middle of the semester. This second
book can be one that you choose from a list of several dozen books in this
website's
Booklist for 2nd
Required Readings. Or it can be a book from the original list of six books
(at
Textbooks and Readings).
3. If you choose a long book
(such as Girls and Sex, Half the Sky,
or
A Problem from Hell) for your first several weeks, then when we reach the middle of the semester,
you can either keep reading the same book, or you may choose a different book.
4. If you do choose a different
book, you may choose it either from
Booklist for 2nd
Required Readings or from the original list of six books
at Textbooks and Readings page.
Wk. 1b. Do Miscellaneous 1114
Assignments (by class day #2): There are lots of these this week:
-
First, write
a Summary of this Eng 1114 Web site, 300+ w. total:
on a separate sheet of paper, write about 40+ words for each link in the
light-yellow bar at the top of every page. There are eight links
("Home Page," "Wkly. Asgnmnts.," etc.). Give each an underlined
Subtitle using the name of the link. Add the proper info about the
assignment in the upper-right corner: please see the gold box below, "How
To Present the Weekly Papers."
-
Locate
your 1114 grammar handbook. You may
buy Rules for Writers, or you may decide to use
www.OnlineGrammar.org)--see
Textbooks and Resources.
Please note that there will be no assignments
from any printed grammar handbook--only from
www.OnlineGrammar.org.
-
Write Journal #1: a "Hello Richard" letter for
Eng 1114, 300+ w.
(due W./Th., but you may have until the
beginning of the first class in Week 2): I would enjoy hearing 300+
words saying hi to me, telling me about your past experiences, good and bad,
with writing, how they have affected you, how you feel about this class,
what you would like to learn, who and what you are in general, how you feel
about school, etc. (As with all of your writings in this class, I never
share them with other students or teachers without your permission.)
Add the proper info about the assignment in the upper-right corner: please
see the colored box below, "How
To Present the Weekly Papers." To see examples of related student
journals, click here:
Sample Student Journals.
Also:
-
Complete and turn in your Eng 1114
"Information and Photo" sheet.
(If you missed getting one, ask me for it.) Please return the whole
sheet to me physically with your photo on it. Wait until you have the
photo--something I can keep, even if you have to copy it. You can copy
and enlarge a driver's I.D. photo if you have nothing else.
-
Print out 2 (TWO) copies of the "Eng.
1114 Course Packet."
One is for bringing to class each time, and
one is for home. Turn one of them in to me for credit for printing it
out. Keep one in your materials you bring to class. Keep one at
home. You need to print two copies of the "Packet" because
you'll need two copies of many of the sheets in it to attach to your
assignments that you turn in.
Wk. 1c. Write Eng 1114 Study
Questions on Comp Textbook,
www.WritingforCollege.org,
150+ w. total in 6+ different bullet points:
Please note: This is not a
textbook you buy. Rather, you read it free online: simply go to
www.WritingforCollege.org
online (as shown in the first week of class).
Do this assignment on chapter 24. Do six separate bullet points or paragraphs
separated by a full line space between each. Please write 150+ w. with six or
more bullet points or paragraphs about six or more points or parts of chapter
24. How should you do the study points? You may: (a) summarize six
parts, (b) respond with what you think about six different parts,
and/or (c) respond with what six different parts make you feel or
remember.
For more details on this
assignment: To do the required study questions and see an example, look in
the top of the left-hand column of
www.WritingforCollege.org
for "Study Questions." Click on it. Then look at the four types of
study questions: you may choose which type you wish to do. Please
note in the upper-right corner of your study questions which set you are doing:
("6 Responses," 6 Summaries," "6 Questions about Chapter," or "6 Questions
about Samples")! You must write 150+ words. To read how to present
all "Journals" and "Study Questions," please see below, "How
To Present the Weekly Papers."
1d. Write Eng 1114 Drafts of Papers:
You can wait until Week 2 to turn
in your first Draft 1, which will be "Paper A." Instructions for working
on it are in your "Eng. 1114
Course Packet"--see
"Draft 1, Paper A Cover Sheet." Before doing this Draft 1-A, you should
read the chapter about it that is assigned in Week 2. This chapter is in the
free online textbook
WritingforCollege.org (or
WforC.org).
1e. Eng 1114 Class-time
Activities: Intros; writing an analysis paper
Intro to class; writing an analysis
paper
(Note: If I have two sections of
this course, they are interchangeable--if you want to make up a class by
coming to the same one in the other section, feel free to do so: simply show
up, and when I take attendance, remind me to give you your own section's
attendance sheet. If you want to change permanently, I can do that for a
couple of people, but ask me first!)
Wk. 1, first day (night class: first half of
class): I will show you the
different parts of the course materials on the Web and how to do the "Study
Questions" assignment.
Wk. 1, second day (night class: last half of
class): I will go over in more
detail how to use the
Course Packet
"Cover Sheets" and how to write the Draft 1 papers. Also, you can get
triple extra credit for presenting something at SSD in Week 5: talk with me
after class.
1f.
ADDITIONAL WEEK 1 INFORMATION:
HOW TO PRESENT THE WEEKLY PAPERS
|
For each weekly paper, you should either type or handwrite using dark ink.
On any one paper, if you write more than one page, please turn the sheet
over and continue on the second page. (However, write each type
of paper on an entirely new sheet: e.g., "Study Questions" should be on one
sheet, and a "Journal" should be on another, separate sheet.)
Also, whenever you turn these types of papers in, please write, in the
upper-right
corner of the first page, the following info so I can tell the
difference between the assignments, the weeks, and your class and any other
section or class I might have (and also so, if your paper is lost on campus,
it will come back to me). This may not sound like it's very important,
but it makes a big difference for me. It helps me a lot.
I look at 100-300 such papers per week. I do appreciate your help with
this:
Name
(First & Last)
for Instructor Name, Course and Section/Time
Week Number
Study Questions, Journal, Sum., Interp., Eval.,
Crit. Rvw.?
[for Study Questions:] Set A: 6
Responses
or Set B: 6 Points
or C: Answers about Chapter
or
D: Answers about Samples
Here's an example:
Chris Lee
for Jewell, Eng 1114-01, 1 p.m.
Week 3
Study Questions [or Summary or Journal #3]
Set B: 6 Points
Do I read every last word of
every sheet of your writings about your readings?
Your writings about your readings are like biology lab practices or sports
practice: they are meant for you to practice writing on your own, to think
more thoroughly about what you have read, and/or to better remember what you
have read by writing about it. Do I read every last word? There
isn't time for me to, given how many weekly papers I assign to all my
students. But that's okay; they're mainly for your practice anyway.
I do at least look at each paper to see if you've met the requirements and
have done the reading. And sometimes something grabs me and I read
part or all of these weekly papers. If you ever do want me to notice
something in particular and comment on it, or if you want to ask a question,
why don't you write me a note at the very
top of the first page and circle it or mark it darkly so I'll
definitely see it. Your note might be something like "What do you
think of my answer to number 2?" or "I have a question: how do I find out
how to contact you?" Then I can answer your question or check out
something in your paper more carefully. |

These ENG 1114 ASSIGNMENTS are due by Thursday Class:
(For exceptions, go to "HOMEWORK/Late
Papers.")
2a. Write about Eng 1114 Book
Reading:
Look up the reading assignment for the book you have chosen by going to
Textbooks and Readings. The reading assignment is at the end of the
description for each of the six books. Then write a Draft 1-A about the
reading (see below).
2b. Do Miscellaneous Eng 1114
Assignments:
Get the "Info & Photo" sheet to me,
if you haven't already. Please return the whole sheet to me physically
with your photo on it (unless you know how to scan the photo sheet w/a photo
and email it that way). Give me a photo I can keep, even if you have to
copy it. You can enlarge and copy a driver's I.D. photo if you have
nothing else. It will save me time if you tape or staple your pic--all 4
corners--to the "Info & Photo" sheet, so I don't have to do it myself. I
need to have each photo fully taped/stapled when I stack the whole class's
sheets together so the photos don't get stuck or ripped off.
Also, fill out your email address
on the sheet I pass around in class, if you haven't already done so (just ask
me for it).
2c. Write Eng 1114 Study Questions
on Comp Textbook, 150+ w.: Chapter 27 in
www.WritingforCollege.org
(shortcut: www.WforC.org).
Because Chapter 27 has samples papers, you must confine yourself, in the Study
Questions, to using ONLY Study Questions type "C." or type "D." This means
that you must write at least 6 points about the chapter--either summarizing
different parts of the chapter, discussing them, or responding to them--and you
must ALSO MAKE AT LEAST ONE POINT ABOUT ONE OR MORE OF THE SAMPLE PAPERS IN SUCH
A WAY THAT I CAN TELL YOU READ THE SAMPLE PAPERS. For example, your
point could be a comparison-contrast of the sample papers, or possibly several
words of summary of each one. Alternatively, you can write your entire
Study Notes by making 6 points about all of the samples papers in the chapter.
Here are some additional points about reading chapters like this one, in which
there are several web pages for the chapter, along with sample papers.
They are all very practical.
-
Each chapter like this is NOT just one web page: it is FIVE web pages. To
get to the five pages, click on them in the RIGHT COLUMN:
"Introduction"
"Basics"
"Advanced"
"Samples"
"Activities"
---
-
"Activities":
You don't need to read it. Skip it.
-
"Samples":
This is very, very important. Read it first or last (or both), but
be sure to read it: you will be responsible for showing that you read, at a bare
minimum, one of the samples.
-
"Introduction":
Skim this, at the least.
-
"Basics":
Look at it carefully if you don't know this type of paper well. Especially
read the parts about "Why" and "Organizing." In "Organizing," pay special
attention to the "visual map," the "keys for writing this type of paper," and
the "dangers to avoid."
-
"Advanced":
You may, if you wish, skip it. However, if you already know this type of
paper, you could skim the "Basics" and, instead, spend more time reading
"Advanced."
---
-
Remember as you read the chapter that you will be responsible for doing Study
Notes/Study Questions to prove you read parts of it. Your two choices for
Study Notes on chapters like this are type "C" or type "D" from the Study
Questions:
"C": Do 5+ points on the "Introduction" and the "Basics" and/or "Advanced," and
at least one more point on one of the samples
or
"D": Write 6+ points on all the sample papers.
Please let me remind you, further, of
two things about "Study Questions" and "Journals." (a) First, if
one of them is longer than one page, simply turn the sheet over and do the rest
on the back of that same sheet (if you are handwriting it). (b)
Second, please remember to turn each one in with the proper identifying
information on each one in the upper-right corner (Why? See "Additional
Week 1 Information," above), as follows:
Name
(First & Last)
Course and Section or Time
Week Number
Type of Assignment
Instructor Name
Here's an example:
Alison Kraus
Eng 1108-01, 1 p.m.
Week 3
Study Questions, Set B [or
Journal #3]
Jewell
2d.
Write Drafts of Papers:
Draft 1 of Paper A, an Analysis, is due this week. See the "Course
Packet" and
look for the "cover sheet" for Draft 1, Paper A. That sheet will have
clear, detailed directions. If you're in class all the time, you'll hear
me talk about how to do this paper, too.
Note: Are you running late
with your Draft 1? You may turn it in as 300+ handwritten words (with its
Draft 1 Cover Sheet on top of it). It will be considered on time. I
will then simply ask you to revise it (by typing and adding more words) and turn
it in again.
2e. Read Transition to College Writing,
Chapter 1, and write 150+ w. of Comments.
(Comments can be summaries,
responses, thoughts, memories, or anything else that shows me, step by step,

Now is the time to order your 2nd reading book for the semester, if you are
going to get another one. See the list of options at

books (see
Textbooks and Readings). Some books from both of these lists will be at the
bookstore starting at the beginning of Week 3. However, the first people to get
there will get the limited number of books there: the sooner you go, the more
likely you can get your choice. Choose carefully so that you will want to keep
working and researching using it! (Note: If you're going to order a used copy,
order right away this week! It can take up to two weeks for books ordered online
to arrive.)
3c. Write Study Questions on Comp
Textbook, 150+ w.: Chapter 32 of

attention in "Basics" to "Organization" and its discussion of the visual map,
the keys to this type of paper, and the dangers to avoid. Especially, be
sure to read "Samples"--read one or more carefully! You may start or end
with the "Samples" part, or do both (start and end with some samples).
When you write the Study Notes/Study Question, you must choose type "C" or type
"D."
3d. Write Drafts of Papers:
Draft 1 of Paper B, a Dialogic Argument, is due this week. See the "Course
Packet" and
look for the "cover sheet" for Draft 1, Paper B. That sheet will have
clear, detailed directions. If you attend class all the time, you'll hear
me talk about how to do this paper, too.
Note: Are you running late
with your Draft 1? You may turn it in as 300+ handwritten words (with its
Draft 1 Cover Sheet on top of it). It will be considered on time. I
will then simply ask you to revise it (by typing and adding more words) and turn
it in again.

Note 1: Are you having
difficulty finding a thesis argument to support? If so, consider trying
two different options: (1) set up a dialogic argument first, and then choose one

Evaluation Paper, you may use such categories of evaluation as
Bias/Prejudice,
Effects on Readers, or Appeals to Readers; Strong, Weak,
and/or Missing Elements; Unspoken Assumptions, Lies/Untruths,
or Contrasts (to similar essays); Misdirection, Contradictions,
or Distortions; and Structure/Style/Type of Audience.)
Note2:
Are you running late with your Draft 1? You may turn it in as 300+
handwritten words (with its Draft 1 Cover Sheet on top of it). It will be
considered on time. I will then simply ask you to revise it (by typing and
adding more words) and turn it in again.
(ii) Draft 2 of Paper A,
B, or C: Start it as soon as you can. This first Draft 2 is due Week
7. To do it, simply choose just one of your Drafts 1-A, 1-B,
or 1-C. Start it very soon, especially if you are going to use your Draft
1-A or 1-B. Then revise it according to the requirements on the "Draft 2
Cover Sheet." The reason you should start it as soon as possible is that
you must develop several bibliography sources for it, so start right away!
(iii) Draft 2 of Paper C, D, or E:
Also, be aware that you will have another Draft 2 due in Week 9. For it
you will choose just one of your Drafts 1-C, 1-D, or 1-E.
(You cannot choose Draft 1-C twice for your two Draft 2 papers.)
5d.
Read Transition, Chapter 4, and write 150+ w. of Comments.
(Comments can be summaries,
responses, thoughts, memories, or anything else that shows me, step by step,
that you read the entire chapter.)
5e. Class-Time Activities:
(i) Mon./Tues. class: What is
due this week. Questions? Reminder of Library trip. Discussion
of book. (ii) What is due next week. Questions? How to Write
an Evaluation Paper.
(ii) Tuesday class: No regular class. Normal class is cancelled on
Tuesday. Instead, you are required to attend Student Success Day ("SSD") in
person or online to get your attendance credit. You may do this in person
on SSD (start at Heritage Hall when you arrive) or online 24/7 (at
www.inverhills.edu/SSD). (Fill out a form I will give you, and
write 150+ w. on the back of it about 75 (let's say 65-85) minutes'-worth of SSD sessions you
attended. (You can count both attending time and writing time, so if you
attend an event for 50 min. and then write about it for 25 min., you'll have
your 75 minutes' total.) You cannot count anything for which you are getting
credit in another course.
You may get as much extra credit as you want by attending
sessions. Any time spent over 85 minutes will count as extra credit. Be sure,
though, to write about the extra minutes (and count the writing time, too). Also
be sure that no other teacher
is giving you credit for the sessions you attend for this class.
If you would like to make a presentation at this event, alone
or with others for this class (not for another course or a club), I will be glad
to give you triple extra credit for the time you spend
both preparing and giving it, and I will give you help preparing it.
Ask me about it.
(iii) Thursday class: regular (or possibly a trip to a
computer lab).
5e. NOTE:
All late Wk. 1-5 papers/make up are absolutely due Wk. 7!
The deadline for acceptance of any
late homework and make up is Week 7. None will be accepted later
(except
as extra credit timed by the minutes/hours).

this week--Week 11.
NOTE: Week 13
is the final deadline
for all “new” D-3's. (A "new" Draft 3 is one being turned
in for the first time after its D-3 has been X'ed.)
According to the schedule, the last
possible week in which any
new Draft 3 can be turned in is Week 13. (A Draft 3 that has been
marked for revision can still be turned in again after this deadline.)
(iii) Draft 4's of your Draft
3's: If you want an "A" grade in this course, you must also successfully
complete at least one Draft 4 paper: revise and edit a Draft 3. The
first Draft 4 is due
next week--Week 12. (If you do a second D-4, it is due the
following week--Week 13.) The absolute deadline for getting in a "new"
Draft 4 is Week 14. Follow the "Draft 4 Cover Sheets" directions.
11c. Class-Time Activities: (i) What is due this week and next week. Questions? Topical
discussions on what to watch out for in Drafts 2-3.
11d. NOTE:
All late Wk. 6-10 papers/make up are absolutely due Wk. 12!
The deadline for acceptance of any late homework and make up is Week 12.
None will be accepted later
(except
as extra credit timed by the minutes/hours).
11e. Do your Draft 4 by presenting
at the Annual Student-Research Conference! Sign up now for presenting your Draft 4 at the Annual Student Research Conference on April
17-18. Then you will not have to present your Draft 4 in written form. Everyone
will have to attend the conference anyway; if you read your paper at the
conference, you also can get credit for it as a Draft 4 (if your Draft 3 is
already done by that time). See the "Draft 4 Cover Sheets" in your "Course
Packet" for directions on how to prepare your presentation. (There may be a 5-7
day extension for signing up to present at the conference.)

Week 12:
Grammar, Punctuation, and/or Organizing;
Computer Lab
(See "Assignment
Dates," above, for dates.)These ENG 1114 ASSIGNMENTS are due by Thursday Class:
(For exceptions, go to "HOMEWORK/Late
Papers.")
|
12a. All late Wk. 6-10 papers/make up are
absolutely due this week! The deadline
for acceptance of any late 6-10 homework and make up is Week 12. None will
be accepted later
(except
as extra credit timed by the minutes/hours).
12b. Miscellaneous: There is a final deadline for extra credit and make
ups coming soon! All make ups and extra credit for weeks 1-14 are due
Week 15 (except tutoring, which is due Week 16). Also please note:
appointments for tutoring in the Writing Center can be very difficult to get in
the last 2-3 weeks of the term.
12b2. See
Homework Options Wks. 9-12: Make your own reading/writing
choice for this assignment--whatever you believe will help you grow the most
as a writer. Only 50+ words is needed--in any form you want.
12c. Write Drafts of Papers (Revise and return them to me right away!):
(i) Draft 1 and 2 Papers: If you're not done revising them, get them to
me as soon as possible. A Draft 2 that has been marked for revision can still
be turned in again. Get them revised immediately!
(ii) Draft 3's of your Draft 2's:
If you want a "B" grade in this course, you must also successfully complete
two Draft 3 papers. Follow the "Draft 3 Cover Sheet" directions.
The first one--a revision and expansion of your first Draft 2, was due two
weeks ago--Week 10; the second one, an expansion of your second Draft 2,
was due last week--Week 11.
NOTE: Week 13
is the final deadline
for all “new” D-3's. (A "new" Draft 3 is one being turned
in for the first time after its D-3 has been X'ed.)
According to the schedule, the last
possible week in which any
new Draft 3 can be turned in is Week 13. (A Draft 3 that has been
marked for revision can still be turned in again after this deadline.)
(iii) Draft 4's of your Draft
3's: If you want an "A" grade in this course, you must also successfully
complete at least one Draft 4 paper: revise and edit a Draft 3.
NOTE: Week
14 is the final deadline
for all “new” D-4's. (A "new" Draft 4 is one being turned
in for the first time after its D-3 has been X'ed.)
The first Draft 4 is technically
due this week--Week 12. The second is due next week. The absolute
deadline for Draft 4's is Week 14 because there simply isn't time for someone
to revise a Draft 4 using required tutoring if he or she hasn't turned it in
by the end of this week.
12d. Class-Time Activities: (i) What is due this week. Questions? Topical discussions on what to watch
out for in Drafts 2-3. (ii) No classes at IHCC on
Wednesday, which is a holiday in Fall 2009.
12e. Deadline for taking a "W"
passing is drawing near: If you are failing this class and would prefer to
take a "W" passing (instead of a "WF"--withdraw failing, or an "F"), check the
deadline for doing so. It is coming soon.
12f. Do your Draft 4 by presenting
at the Annual Student-Research Conference! There may be an extension until
this week to sign up for presenting your Draft 4 at the Annual Student
Research Conference on April 17-18. Then you will not have to present your Draft
4 in written form. Everyone will have to attend the conference anyway; if you
read your paper at the conference, you also can get credit for it as a Draft 4
(if your Draft 3 is already done by that time). See the "Draft 4 Cover Sheets"
in your "Course Packet" for directions on how to prepare your presentation.

credit, fill out a form I will give you, and write 150+ w. on the back of it

count both attending time and writing time. You cannot get credit for something
you are attending for credit in another course.
You also may get as much
extra credit as you want by attending sessions, as long as you write about the
time (at least 150 w. for every additional hour), and as long as no other teacher is giving you credit for the sessions you
attend for this class.

information from you. Also, please remember that I check email
only once a day, Mon.-Sat. If you send something to me by 10 am
Mon.-Sat., I almost always will see it that same day. Also
remember also that even if you send me a paper by 10 am on a day when I am
teaching on campus, I won't have time to grade your paper before coming to
campus. The common expected time by which professors normally finish
grading papers is one week. I try to do it in less, if possible, but I
almost never can do it in just one day.
