 Appear in gradebook but are *not* grades  Four CLAs assessed:  Compose original documents in Standard American English for different writing situations.  Demonstrate all aspects of the writing process: planning, research, development, organization, and revision.  Use the conventions of academic and professional writing.  Apply course knowledge and skills to their chosen professional fields.  “Grading” :  9 Not Assessed  0 No Progress  1 Introductory  2 Emergent  3 Practiced  4 Proficient  5 Mastery

 Respond to question(s) each week  Respond to at least 2 other posts in detail  Find articles in the library  Grammar and Spelling  Graded by rubric  Late policies:  You will not receive credit for responding to other posts after the discussion “closes” for the unit  Please notify me via when you submit late work to any unit.  No late discussions will be accepted after the end of Unit 9.

 Units 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 9  Reviewed in each Unit’s seminar meeting  Graded by rubric  Late Policies:  With extenuating circumstances: It is your responsibility to inform me (ahead of time, whenever possible) of extenuating circumstances that might prevent you from completing projects by the assigned deadline. In those situations, we will work together to come up with a mutually acceptable alternative. Prior notification does not automatically result in a waiver of the late penalties.  Without extenuating circumstances: Accepted with a penalty of one letter grade per week (not to exceed a 3 letter grade penalty. For example, you submit an “A” paper 3 weeks late, you would earn a grade of a “D” ).  For final projects: Late Final Projects without extenuating circumstances will not be accepted. Final projects are due by 11:59 PM ET, Tuesday of Unit 9 (the last day of Unit 9, September 7). If you are having problems, technical or otherwise, you must contact Student Services and your instructor immediately.

 Discussion  First, find the assigned article in the library.  Then post. There should be three parts to your posting: ▪ 1. Introduce yourself ▪ 2. Respond to the quote taken from the reading. Be sure to reference the reading within your post. ▪ 3. Respond to at least two other posts, in depth.

 Project:  Write a paragraph of at least 100 to 150 words that answers the following questions: ▪ What topic have you selected from the list for your final project? ▪ What are three things that interest you about this topic? ▪ Is your interest in the topic related to your current or future profession? If so, how? ▪ What might be your first steps in learning about the topic? ▪ How do you imagine the final project would need to be different if you were writing it to deliver as a speech?

 Project Rubric High Pass (30 points) Student work meets expectations for this assignment by including all required information with correct grammar and mechanics overall. Pass (25 points) Student work meets content requirements for this assignment by including all required information, but content may have grammar and mechanics errors that make understanding content difficult. Low Pass (20 points) Student work meets some of the expectations of the assignment, but may have incomplete responses to required information. No Credit (0 points)Student work does not meet the expectations for this assignment. Paragraph does not respond to all questions required. Project may be plagiarized (Plagiarism Explanation). Plagiarism Explanation

 Kaplan University considers academic honesty to be one of its highest values. Students are expected to be the sole authors of their work. Use of another person’s work or ideas must be accompanied by specific citations and references. Though not a comprehensive or exhaustive list, the following are some examples of dishonesty or unethical and unprofessional behavior:  Plagiarism: Using another person’s words, ideas, or results without giving proper credit to that person; giving the impression that it is the student’s own work.  Any form of cheating on examinations.  Falsifying information for any assignments.

 Submitting an assignment(s) that was partially or wholly completed by another student.  Copying work or written text from a student, the Internet, or any document without giving due credit to the source of the information.  Submitting an assignment(s) for more than one class without enhancing and refining the assignment, and without first receiving professor permission. In cases where previous assignments are allowed to be submitted for another class, it is the responsibility of the student to enhance the assignment with additional research and to also submit the original assignment for comparison purposes.  Assisting another student with reasonable knowledge that the other student intends to commit any act of academic dishonesty. This offense would include, but not be limited to, providing an assignment to another student to submit as his or her own work or allowing another student to copy answers to any test, examination, or assignment.

 In essence, plagiarism is the theft of someone else’s ideas and work. Whether a student copies verbatim or simply rephrases the ideas of another without properly acknowledging the source, it is still plagiarism. In the preparation of work submitted to meet course requirements, whether a draft or a final version of a paper or project, students must take great care to distinguish their own ideas and language from information derived from other sources.  Sources include published primary and secondary materials, electronic media, and information and opinions gathered directly from other people.  Kaplan University subscribes to a third-party plagiarism detection service, and reserves the right to check all student work to verify that it meets the guidelines of this policy.

 If something comes up as plagiarized, the official policy is:  1st offense: Failure of the assignment in which the action occurred.  2nd offense: Failure of the class in which the action occurred.  3rd offense: Expulsion or permanent dismissal from the University.  Accidental plagiarism?
