Calendar – FALL 2003

ESOL 2301 is a paced course. Students are required to submit all drafts and final assignments on or before midnight of the last day allotted to the respective module.

Drafts: The submission of drafts of assignments to the instructor for comments and corrections is a critical part of the learning process. Students who do not submit drafts not only will miss the value of this editing process but also will automatically lose 5% of their final grade for the respective assignment.

NO WORK SUBMITTED AFTER DUE DATE WILL BE ACCEPTED!
