There are two parts to submitting Project 5:
-
Writing your reflection memo.
The reflection memo is your chance to tell me anything you want me to know about your project. I will read your reflection before I read the project. -
Sharing your project links.
For this project, your reflection memo will give me the link to the documents you have chosen to write (extended definition, instructions, and glossary).
Writing Your Reflection Memo and Submitting Your Project
- Go to the Assignments tab on the left menu in Scholar.
- Choose “P5: Definition and Instructions.”
- Scroll down to the text box below the headings Submission and Assignment Text. You will write your memo in this box. (Alternately, you can write in a word processor/Google Doc, and copy/paste your text into this box.)
- Add your memo headers (To, From, Subject, and Date). For your reflection memo, you’ll use the following:
- Address your memo to me (Traci) and from yourself (use your name).
- Add a subject line that indicates this is your reflection memo and which project it is for.
- Add the current date.
- After your memo headers, insert a horizontal divider line using the button indicated with the red arrow in the image below:
- Introduce your project—what are your overall goals, what grade have you aimed for, and what documents have you written for the project?
- For each part of the project you have written (e.g., extended definition, instructions, glossary), do the following:
- Label the link so I know which document it will take me to.
- Add the Share link to the document on your Google Drive. Use the instructions for how to get the Share link on the FAQ site if you are unsure how to convert and share documents (see more tips below).
- Tell me what I need to know to understand the information you have included in your document.
- Tell me anything else you want me to know about the the layout and design.
- Review the information for Project 5 in the reflection memo. You should have a block for each piece you have written that tells me what it is, gives me the link, and tells me about it.
- Add a concluding section that tells me anything else you want me to know about your project.
- Agree to the Honor Code by clicking the checkbox at the bottom of the page in Scholar. You cannot finish submitting the project without clicking that checkbox (and it’s easy to miss).
- Submit your Project, and save a copy of the confirmation and submission ID. If something goes wrong in Scholar, you can contact 4HELP with that information.
- You’re done! Project 6 (the final exam) will be a completion report (similar to a self-evaluation for a performance review in a workplace) that focuses on the work you have done during the term.
Tips on Using Google Drive
The FAQ site has step-by-step instructions for tasks you will complete with your Google Drive, including converting your document if you have worked in another word processor, adding comments, and sharing your documents are all included.
To make sure that you can submit your first project smoothly, pay attention to the following FAQs:
- If you worked in something other than Google Drive, you can use your preferences to automatically convert files you upload to Google Drive automatically.
This step is important so that I can use the commenting features in Google Drive. - If you already uploaded a document to Google Drive, check the format of your files and manually convert the files on Google Drive if necessary.
- Follow the instructions on how to set permissions and get the Google Drive Share link to get a link that will allow me to read and comment on your document.
Note that if your documents are in the wrong format or the permissions do not allow me to comment, I will return your work ungraded.
