Take a survey for extra credit

As you know, this quarter is the first time we have tried a hybrid format with a significant online portion for this class. We are looking for your feedback on the course format and a few other things. To this end, Korey and I have created an online survey that will take maybe 5-10 minutes of your time. I would like to get as many responses as possible and so you will receive 1 point of extra credit for taking it.

The survey is completely anonymous and is located here.

Once you've completed it, send me an email (yes, I'm taking your word on this) to let me know and I will add a point on to your grade. Yay, bonus point!

Deadline for survey completion: Friday, 3/23

Things #21 & #22 - Final project References list and report/Memo

So the time has arrived to put together your final project. To read about the details, clink on the "Project" link in the Menu.

You will have two weeks to complete the Final Project (worth 20% of your grade for this class). If you have completed all of the things until this point, you will already have found a number of high quality sources. I encourage you to use these!

Do NOT post the project to your blog.
DO turn in a hard copy of the project to my basket at the Reference Desk by March 14th at 9pm.

Ask me if you have any questions.

Due: Wednesday, March 14th by 9pm.
