Read GradeMark thoroughly.

You must read the GradeMark pages thoroughly. All my suggestions and comments are in there, and your 36 points on WA2 are riding on how well you follow my suggestions.

I have comments with icons in the body of your paper, then you can pop up the sub-window and view
  1. the list of comments,
  2. general comments
  3. rubric scorecard

Here is the toolbar you must click in order to open the sub-window:



and here is the medium size toolbar that also activates in the sub-window.

Writing Assignment 2 is ready to go, due at noon, Saturday.

Your instructions for Writing Assignment 2 (WA2) are now UP. Look in the Week 5 learning module, item 7. It is due at noon on Saturday, Aug. 1.

By the way, do you see the "dollar bill" being used with the dinosaur footprint?

Scores for WA1

It is a pain in the kiester to move your scores from TurnItIn.com over to Webcourses. I will be working on it sometime in the next day or two. But until I get them into Webcourses, you can definitely view everything in TurnItIn.com -- grademarks, suggestions, score etc. -- by clicking your red apple icon.

WHAT THE --?!

Everybody has a grademarked paper. YAY.

But I am going to hit the rack now for some snoozing. I will release our WA2 instructions tomorrow morning, and it will be due on Saturday, lunchtime. Sound OK?

Still grading

I am still grademarking. Obviously I will be giving everybody an extra day or two to complete WA2, so do not stress out.

Week 5 module is UP.

Week 5 module is ready for you now. I also included links to the Discussions area, where we can get down to the nitty gritty on thermodynamics and electric fields, thereby building some excellent mv for global conquest of PSC1121 concepts for the final exam.
