Final Draft Paper Submission
The final draft of your paper is not intended to be a “rough” draft. It should be as good as you can make it and, hopefully, very close to the final review paper. We expect good writing and a well-organized paper. Your final draft should be complete (all of the primary data you plan to have in the final paper, your paper and references in the proper format, no typos, etc.) and will count for roughly 20% of your final grade (up to 100 points).
Review the Review Paper Grading Rubric. Review Paper Grading Rubric that will be used to evaluate and grade your paper. The instructor will grade your paper (0-100 points) and will return it to you with comments on areas for improvement and revision. You must respond to all corrections or questions. If you are unsure how to do this, contact your instructor for clarification. In summary, make the first draft your very best effort. This will dramatically improve your chances of getting a good grade and should make the revision process of your final paper that much easier.
