Project #5 Critical
Revision of a Project
Project 5: Critical Revision of a
Project asks you to revisit one of
the projects you submitted earlier
in the semester, choosing from
projects 2-4. You will complete a
critical revision of that project and
write an accompanying reflection
on your work.
To encourage and practice recursive writing, you are welcome to
revise projects for a second (or third, etc.) time for this assignment.
Project 5 will amount to 6-7 pages (about 1500 words) or the digital
equivalent (about 10 minutes of audio or video). Projects may be
longer than six pages depending on the length of the revisionin
any case, effective reflections will amount to at least two pages
(about 600 words) or the digital equivalent (about 4 minutes of
audio or video). It is also possible that this will be a hybrid project,
where the revision is digital and the reflection is alphabetic or vice
versa.
Revision: A critical revision for this project will entail (this criteria
will be developed by students in the course).)
Reflection: For the reflection, you will (1.) Revisit your goals from
Project 1, using the achievement requirements, your projects, and
feedback from your peers, the Writing Center, and your instructor
as source evidence to argue how/what you learned through the
semester. So, name your writing/course goals from Project 1 and
use the above mentioned source materials, as well as your own
reflections, to analyze how you meet these goals.
You will also (2.) Write 1-2 paragraphs addressing the revisions you
made in Project 5and justify why you made these changes. In other
words, you will be arguing why you chose to make these particular
changes in order to strengthen your writing or composing.
