ANNOTATIONS

Each student will also be completing readings of his/her choice and sharing insights and new knowledge with classmates through annotations. Each annotation should begin with the bibliographic reference to the portion annotated (i.e. chapter, article, personal interview), written in APA style and include a keyword that best describes the knowledge gained. Annotations (less bibliographic entry) are expected to be concise entries of 50-150 words.

Students who aspire to a C in the course should submit 1 annotation each week, written at the Adequate or better level. Students who aspire to a B in the course should submit 2 annotations each week, written at the Strong or better level. Students who aspire to a A in the course should submit 3 annotations each week, written at the Outstanding level.

Email (within the message rather than as an attachment) your 1-3 annotations to the instructor at Brown@SouthernCT.edu by Friday of each week. [In the subject line please enter "565, nickname, annotations, week#."] Annotations will be loaded to this website with access from STUDENT WORK below. Be sure to use the SCORING OF ASSIGNMENTS as a guide for assessing the quality of drafts before submitting the final annotations for scoring and presentation to classmates.
