HOMEWORK: The Final Draft of the Reflective Annotated Bibliography is due at the beginning of class on Wednesday. Edit and proofread your project with care. I advise each student to ask at least one person read their work before turning it in. Bring a printed copy of the final draft and all process work (peer reviews and earlier drafts).
