HUM 104 -- FIRST PAPER
This is a take-home paper assignment. The paper should be between 800 and 1200 words, 12 points - double spaced. Any paper outside the limits will automatically receive a C. A wordcount should appear in your paper. It should fulfill the requirements of an argumentative paper. Typically: YOU HAVE TO DEFEND A SPECIFIC THESIS, and your paper should follow the format: introduction, three or more arguments, and conclusion. To see what I expect from your paper, you can also consult my grading guide and the grading sheet (link on main course web page) . - THE PROSPECTUS IS DUE ON 2/10 by midnight: a prospectus contains: a tentative title, and one paragraph giving your main arguments. It should be about 300 words. - THE PEER REVIEW TAKES PLACE ON 2/18. - THE FINAL VERSION OF THE PAPER IS DUE ON 2/25. After the 25th, GRADES WILL BE LOWERED BY ONE LETTER GRADE EACH DAY AFTER THE DUE DATE Turning in a prospectus and showing up for the peer review with a complete draft of your paper is mandatory. Failure to do so will result in your grade being lowered by one letter grade (per offense). Please read the appropriate section in Part I of the course notes about prospectuses, peer reviews and how to write an argumentative paper. Your paper should be turned in both in a paper (in my mailbox, SH 218) and an electronic form (to lebihan@iit.edu). It should have: 1. A cover with your name and the topic chosen 2. A title (not the topic) 3. pages numbers and word count. I will not accept papers unless they are under the format required. TOPIC:
