Purpose
This assignment is an exchange of feedback with a classmate. The hope is that some ideas from that classmate might be valuable for your project. Your instructor will assign you to a classmate for this purpose; watch email and/or the classroom early in the unit to ensure you know your partner for this small but important assignment. You will need only Microsoft Word and PG email to complete this assignment.
Assignment Instructions and Requirements
Contact your assigned classmate by school email as soon as you can. Share your Unit 2 assignments with each other by email attachment. You may include any questions you hope your classmate can answer in the body of your email.
Before exchanging feedback, make sure you read the requirements below. Then provide feedback via email. This should be done early in the unit to ensure that both you and your classmate have enough time to review each other’s feedback and thoughtfully assess the information. To meet the end of unit timing, make sure you have exchanged feedback by Sunday night at 11:59 p.m. ET.
