Dialogue Task

We've discussed the punctuation rules for writing direct speech and practiced developing a written conversation with a classmate. Now your task is to write a story that features dialogue. Check the class folder for;
1. Task Guidelines
2. Assessment Rubric
3. Story Starters

This task will require that you have a peer edit your work (before I do) and that you edit someone else's work. The deadline for the final product is the end of class on Friday, Oct. 3. Don't wait to the last minute, begin now.

I am trying to pace our assignments with a sensitivity to your workload in other courses. Remember, if you are writing something for another class, you can ask me for editing support and I can give you credit for it as an additional assignment. Video tutorials for MLA and APA formatting are in the class folder. Google Docs will automatically insert footnotes for you.
