Editing Professional Development Proseminar: Writing for Publication (Spring 2022) (section)

== Assignments ==

This has basically two classes of assignments:

# Completion of a scholarly article and submission to a journal.
# Engagement with the course content via weekly responses and in-class discussion and the WAG portion of the course.

The production of the scholarly article will be broken down into a series of milestones. These involve an initial plan due early in the quarter, weekly updates that you will provide during class over the course of the quarter, a draft an article you will submit for feedback from your classmates, and a final article and other material you will need as part of submission to a journal

In terms of engagement, the course relies heavily on discussion and in-person participation. It is important to realize that we will not summarize reading in class and I will not cover it in lecture. I expect you all to have read it and we will jump in and start discussing it. The "Participation Rubric" section of [[User:Benjamin Mako Hill/Assessment| my detailed page on assessment]] gives the rubric I will use in evaluating engagement.

=== Assessment ===

I have put together a very detailed page that describes [[User:Benjamin Mako Hill/Assessment|the way I approach assessment and grading]]—both in general and in this course. Please read it carefully I will assign grades for each of following items on the UW 4.0 grade scale according to the weights below:

* An initial written plan for your article: 10%
* An initial draft of your article: 10%
* Written review of a classmate's article: 10%
