ILP Revision
I asked you to bring a draft to class last week, and I have spoken with each of you about your progress so far. Since the draft was due, you have visited the writing center and submitted your first draft of a full-length paper. How might your ILP change in order to reflect these recent experiences?
Update your ILP, and submit it in the slot on Turnitin.com.
The requirements for the ILP draft have not changed. I'm repeating them here, for your convenience.
- A brief introduction, articulating your goals in this class (beyond "getting a good grade" or "doing it because I have to").
- A brief explanation of your strengths as a writer (refer to comments from me or other teachers, motivation in the form of career goals or work experience, and/or guidelines you find in the textbook).
- A brief list of 3-5 specific areas you want to work on this term. (I want to see a list, such as "I want to work on A, B, and C. I will work on A because... I will work on B because... I will work on C because... ")
- This list must include some major grammar issues (as identified by your MyCompLab pre-test).
- This list may also other issues such as
time-management, or personal attitude towards writing.
- Promises that will help you
to meet your goals. This section
- must include a statement about how
many MyCompLab exercises you plan to complete and what score you want to reach
- may also include promises such as "Attend every class" or "not update Facebook during class" or "submit every assignment on time" or "spend at least 3 hours studying the night before each class" or "make appointment to talk with professor once a month" or "bring rough drafts of every assignment to the writing center."
