HOW DO I SAVE MY WRITING ASSIGNMENTS AND WHERE DO I PLACE THEM??

**All writing assignments (drafts included) must be formatted in APA style, and the files must be labeled with your last name and assignment. For example, SmithDraft1.doc. or SmithPeerReview1.docx. They should be saved as a MS Word document and uploaded into the assignment folder. You are expected to write a complete draft, check for basic structure and grammar mistakes, and run a spell check. All drafts should be placed in the writing assignment folder and the peer review discussion forum (see peer review instructions in the Contents). All revised essays will be placed in the same assignment folder as the draft. These folders are marked Writing Assignment 1, Writing Assignment 2, etc. The peer reviews will be placed in their own assignment folder and the back into the peer review discussion forum.

**Discussions and library assignments do not need to be uploaded to an assignment folder. I will grade them in the discussion forum. Comfit exercises will also be graded in Comfit.
