Step 1: Submission (earn up to 100% of the possible points for the assignment)
Your submission should include all of the following components:
Content and Organization
Part 1: Research Paper Revisions (60 points)
You will review the feedback that you have received on your first draft (from your instructor, peer review, and/or self-review), and you will make revisions and edits based on your goals.
You will track the changes from your first draft so that your instructor can easily identify where you made revisions.
Use strikethrough to indicate areas that should be deleted.
Use bold-face to indicate areas where you are adding content.
Part 2: Expanded Reflection (40 points)
You will answer reflective questions on the research writing experience and process. This is an expanded reflection because it requires more in-depth answers than the reflection questions on previous assignments. It is also worth a greater proportion of the assignment grade.
