Submitting Your Analysis Project

Submitting Your Analysis Project published on

This is the post for the week of Monday, February 13, 2017.

Notes for Today

  • Shift in due dates: Because many groups have had challenges in working out logistics for this first project, I have changed our due dates:

    • 02/06 to 2/10 Self-Assessment due in Canvas by 11:59 PM on Friday, 02/17
    • Analysis of Writing in Your Field due in Canvas by 11:59 PM on Friday, 02/17

  • Déjà vu: Since we are continuing work from last week, you will see that the readings are the same. That doesn’t mean you can skip them. Read through them again and work to make your group stronger and more collaborative.

  • Celebrate President’s Day: Monday, 2/20 is a holiday. Even though Tech doesn’t take the day off, I am assuming that this course will. Nothing is due on Monday, and the post for next week will be live around midnight on Tuesday, 2/21. Enjoy some time off!

Readings for This Week

Group Work and Major Project Assignment #1

You have two goals this week: (1) doing whatever it takes to build a strong, working writing group, and (2) revising and submitting your Analysis of Writing in Your Field project.

As a reminder, here are the critical dates for the project:

  • Week of January 30: Research and draft your project.
  • Week of February 6: Share your draft with your writing group, and provide feedback to your group members.
  • Submission Due Date: Friday, February 17 at 11:59 PM   *** New Due Date ***
  • End of Grace Period: Thursday, February 23 at 11:59 PM (3-day grace period, excluding weekend + President’s Day holiday)

Activities for This Week

  1. Build a strong writing group. Each group needs to work to ensure that everyone gets feedback and support. To that end, make sure you have completed the work assigned last week:
    1. Introduce yourself to your writing group.
    2. Collaborate to set ground rules for your writing group in your #team______ channel on Slack. Be sure to think about when you should post ideas and how to ensure that work doesn’t wait until the last minute.
    3. Share a draft of your Analysis of Writing project in your #team______ channel on Slack and give feedback to your group members.

  2. Read through/view the resources on your writing group, and tell your writing group at least one thing you will do to help the team collaborate successfully.

  3. Revisit last week’s post for details on the activities you need to complete. All the work listed last week is due by Friday, 2/17..

  4. Complete the Self-Assessment for the week. Since the work continues from last week, you will update and submit the template from last week. Download the 02/06 to 2/10 Template and follow the instructions to share details on your work this week with me. Upload your completed self-assessment to the 02/06 to 2/10 Self-Assessment in Canvas by 11:59 PM on Friday, 02/17. If you need extra time, take advantage of the grace period, which ends at 11:59 PM on Tuesday, 02/21.
