Note: Typically, all assignments will be submitted electronically. The due dates listed above are for the final drafts of each of these assignments. You will be expected to complete and turn in earlier drafts of all of these assignments throughout the semester. Unless otherwise specified, all assignments and drafts are due by 11:59pm on the given due date (the night before class), as are all daily homework assignments. Late submission of drafts (rough drafts and/or final, graded drafts) will severely affect your grades. See the “Evaluation and Grading” section of this syllabus regarding late submission of graded assignments. For specific assignment guidelines, always refer to the assignment prompt for that specific assignment (Sakai>Resources).
See also the “Calendar” tab on our Sakai course site for reminders about due dates for graded assignments, etc. although you are ultimately responsible for making a note of all due dates and other expectations outlined in the official course syllabus (and as adjusted via daily lesson plans on Sakai at Resources>In-Class Activities).
