Draft 3

Draft 3s

Please follow the Directions 1-5 for Boosting to rewrite, edit, revise, and BOLD changes in your Draft 3. Please do all the described color changes and provide a color key for your scheme.

HOWEVER - Unlike boosting, DO NOT send me an email. AND you have more than a week to complete the Draft 3.

I will grade draft 3s after the 5 essays. (MLA, APA, Chicago Notes/Bibliography, Chicago Author/Date, and CSE - 20 points each). All these draft 3 will be graded sometime in December.

Philosophy: There are no drafts at the next level (college), only due dates. Drafting is something you MUST learn to do for yourself to improve your quality of writing. Ask yourself, "Do the improvements that I have made really, fundamentally improve the essay?" Just correcting mechanical errors does not really improve an essay. It makes your essay more readable, but it's not really an improvement.
