Who's taking it winter 2? Have you gotten your book? Are you buying or renting?

Also, if you have taken it, any advice? :D

Just got my grade for assignment module 2. I lost two points for two periods that were either in the wrong spot or should not have been there at all. This was on the in-text citation. My references passed without a hitch. Again...body of written statement was fine. 2 points deducted = 98%. Lowered my overall grade.

On to the next.

I too feel the anguish of it all. I have no idea whether my content makes sense....all I know is that I forgot to italicize a reference...shame on ME!

Your TA must be a bit more energetic than mine. I do not have even the discussion post graded, let alone my assignment.

She usually grades assignments first and posts them on Tuesday. DB grades posted on Wednesdays.

I lost 2 points for not italicizing a reference on a discussion post in Mod 2. It's just silly!

The points deducted seem so random...NO consistency in grading whatsoever. That makes me crazy. I cringe with fear I'll get some dreaded TA for each course.

I wrote three lengthy paragraphs and it was in a formal style. Almost as if I was doing documentation at work.
