Session 12: Catching up on your APA 3rd, 2nd, or 1st Drafts/Mini-IELTS Preparation
Summary: Please check Campus Square & your email inboxes for the Zoom link to this class.
Thank you for your papers. I have sent feedback to four students on their 3rd drafts and await their second drafts with in-text citations in APA style, including the date, page number, section, and paragraph number, so that I can check them.
In our Zoom Meeting, I will work on individual feedback on your papers and let everyone know what they need to do.
Then, we briefly focused on preparing for your upcoming IELTS practice tests (we are behind), mainly on the listening test. Those of you who took our AEW1a class last term will probably improve your score by .5 if you try hard.
Homework Due at 1 pm the day before Session 13:
- Submit your 2nd, 3rd, or final draft via email. Sorry, late students will get -2 points each week their final draft does not come in after January 19th at 1 pm.
- Option to read only if you are late with your 3rd draft or if you have already done this assignment in AEW1a with me. For extra credit of two points, please also take detailed 2 to 3 pages of notes on the PDF file on IELTS Information for candidates attached below, and include your notes, keywords, diagrams, drawings, and charts in your own words as much as you can.
Instructions: Take a picture or screenshot and input the photos into the Class 12 IELTS of your Google Doc, if you would like the extra credit of 2 points.
Other students get to see your work and share it. Just doing the work will give you credit for the homework. Document attached also below. Here are two samples of IELTS note-taking:
