TODAY ...
We should be finishing our research (due Monday 1/25 to Edmodo before Midnight). You may also submit a printed copy of your work to me today or Monday ... it DOES NOT have to be submitted electronically. But the due date is the due date.
Begin work on your working outline for your paper (the last step before we begin rough drafting). We will discuss the requirements in class and this WILL be submitted electronically through Edmodo before Midnight on Tuesday 1/26.
Make note of the amended due dates for the major parts of the research paper below - and be aware that we will not spend every class day between now and the final draft due date on only the research paper. We will have adequate class time to complete MOST of the requirements, but you may be required to work on something outside of our normal class time.

- Select the "ATTACH FILES" icon in the submission box on Edmodo
- Hold down CTRL and then click individually on each of them
- Then complete the TURN IN process
