Success strategies for this class . . .

Read the Rethink and Revise sections of the assignment document. Begin revising your essay!

A number of students have asked for some advice about how to improve in this class. There are several topics under College Life in the discussion group on that topic, so I suggest you go back and read those entries and then add to them. But here are some other ideas:

• Do everything! All the small assignments and activities, for sure. Read and write in the discussion group frequently.
  
• Read everything! Don't just skim or scan the pages. Read them carefully. Print them out. Highlight the important points.
• Write something for this class every day! If you've written a draft, revise -- and then revise again.
• Ask questions! The Help & Feedback section of the discussion group is the student's best friend. Ask your questions there!
