Here’s the instructions for the rough draft
First, post a rough draft of your final paper to the discussion thread below. You will receive points for posting a reasonably complete draft, but the draft will not be graded by the instructor. The idea here is to help you work ahead, familiarize yourself with the rubric, and get feedback. Your rough draft does not have to be perfect, but the more complete it is, the more beneficial your peer review will be. However, if all you have is an outline, or some but not all sections complete, that is okay.
