Unit 5
Building on the drafting work that you did in Unit 4, you should complete your first full draft of the essay by the end of this unit. Below you’ll find a document outlining specific expectations for that draft. Your draft is due on Sunday July 14 by 11:59 p.m. Note that this draft will be graded as an actual essay. While it is a “rough” draft, that does not mean that you can fall short of the required word count, source minimum, or other content requirements.
Make sure that your draft meets the minimum length and source requirements. If you fail to meet length requirements, you will receive an automatic zero on the assignment with no opportunity to rewrite.
