Does the page length refer to the length of the actual draft, or does it refer to the revision and the bulleted list combined? Also, is it 4-5 pages regardless of what the assignment's original page limits were?

Matt, it's great to see that you're working on this nice and early.

The revision should be 4-5 pages, not counting any other parts. Yes, the page length is the same no matter what the original assignment page length was.

Just to clarify, when you say highlighted copy of our full revision, do you mean that we put our 4-5 page paper in the document and highlight that? We do not need to highlight things and then put our paper in the document?

I want you to highlight your new draft to call my attention to all of your changes. It doesn't matter to me whether you add the highlighting before or after you add the different parts together into the one document that you will submit.

Since I have already read and left comments on your old draft, I don't need to see any highlighting on that document.

Did that answer your question, Jenna?

Yes. Thank you!

Ok, I know Matt has sort of asked this question, but what is the length of the actual revised paper? Does are revised paper, just the revision, not any of the stuff, does that have to be 4-5 pages even though the original requirements of the paper only said 2 to 3 pages? And I am confused as to what all you would like printed out and turned in to in class as well. It's probably spelled out clear in your directions, but sometimes things just go right over my head like now for instance. Thanks Dr. Jerz.

The length of the final paper should be 4-5 pages. Yes, that means some students will have to double the size of their submission. And I think that is appropriate -- altogether, Paper 1 is worth more than times as much as the original exercise.

I want you to print out the 2 stages of the paper that I have already seen (both the original exercise and the presubmission) with my comments, so that I can easily consult my comments while evaluating your revision.

Did that help?

Yes, completely. Thank you!

Are we supposed to put the electronic submission up on turnitin? Will there be a slot? What happens if the highlighting or the bulleted list gets messed up? (Can that even happen?)

Yes, there is a slot and it should be open. (I'm a bit surprised that nobody has uploaded their draft yet, but the deadline is still about 12 hours away.)

If the bullets or highlighting are messed up in the version that Turnitin.com shows you, I can still access the original file that you uploaded, and I will always check it if your document looks strange.
