Ex 8: CEA Report
A report on what you learned during a specific CEA panel that you attended. (3-4 pages.)
Conference presentations at most conferences are considered academic publications, so be sure to cite the names of presenters and the titles of their papers correctly.
Update, 31 Mar: Let's discuss this in class on 2 Apr.
Term Project Progress Report
An informal, 1-2 page report on your progress. Include a bulleted list of what you plan to do next, and what you plan to produce (that is, what you are going to submit for my evaluation).
You are welcome to post it on your blog, but if you do, upload the URL to the slot on turnitin.com.
