Senior Thesis Resubmission Instructions and Cohort Meeting 1

Senior Thesis Revisions
Once you have received your final grade for your paper, you have the option to rewrite it based on my comments.  Your revised paper grade will REPLACE your original grade.  However, any penalties for not meeting the page limit or for late submission will still apply.  In order for your re-submission to be accepted, you must follow the guidelines below exactly. 

1. Submitted no later than 9:30 am, Monday, April 18  (I will not accept late re-submissions, so don't ask)
2. Submit in the class inbox, or email .doc file to me.
3. Stapled, Double-sided (or emailed)
4. Submit your draft together with both your previous draft and the graded rubric
5. Your final draft must demonstrate improvement between drafts
6. Note: you'll have to 'save as' your old draft to distinguish it between the old and new!!!
7.  Important: Annotations on your final draft  are strongly recommended (it does not have to be a clean draft).  Feel free to highlight, underline, comment,  or draw arrows to specific points made, new evidence used, new phrasing etc.  Your final grade depends in a large part on your ability to show growth between drafts in the categories I have outlined in the rubric.  The easier you make it for me to see this growth, and the clearer it is, the better.

Cohort Meeting #1
The purpose of this cohort meeting is twofold:

1. To solidify your final idea for your senior project
2. To develop criteria that will be used to determine if your project is passing

To that end, the Senior Project- Personal Assessment Plan is due to me by 5:00 Thursday, April 14.  Download it here, then fill it out and return it to Lori.  We will use your first milestone as the guidepost for our first individual check-in next week.  

After this first group meeting, all check-ins will be individual.  We will check in once a week for the next four weeks, however, if you need me more often, I am at your disposal, so please feel free to contact me for additional meetings and support.
