Writing On- and Offline

These writing prompts are followed by text boxes for your input. If you are working online and your instructor has given you the go-ahead, you can send your work to him or her by clicking the "Submit Answers" button. If you are working offline, you will have to copy your answers (CTRL-C on most systems) and paste them (CTRL-V) into a text document to retain a record of your work.

Activity 2:

Find a student essay online and critique its form. Does its form mesh with the guidelines above and with those in your text? If not, do you think the differences are enough to result in a lower grade than the student might have been given? How important do you think it is to follow your instructor's guidelines carefully?
