After the Introductory section, there are four sections. Each section has the same assignment types: Annotate Books, Discussion Posts, and Your Book Club. The Course Schedule specifies what is due when.
This page details (1) how assignments are to be submitted, and (2) how they will be graded, which reflects how they are to be completed.
There are some things that apply to submitting and grading both assignment types:
All assignments are submitted in iCollege.
All assignments are graded as complete (1 point) or incomplete (0 points).
To be graded as complete, an assignment must be submitted before its due date and time. (But see the Course Outline for details on a grace period.)
For each assignment type, the average score across submissions counts toward the final grade.
Each assignment type is worth a third (~33.33%) of the final grade.
In the section’s iCollege submission folder, upload “My Annotation.” To be graded as complete, all of the following must happen:
Summarize every page (not less, not more)…
In your own words (no quotation or plagiarism)…
In one sentence (not less, not more)…
And, conform with the instructions in the section, “How to Make Word Docs for Annotating Books”, on the Annotate Books page.
