NOTE: Looking for the same person who takes on this task to be the one to do the project itself.

04A.Project Questionnaire Assignment

Instructions

Copy and paste the questions below into the “text submission” window, then answer the questions to select your project topic. Note that this topic you select and I approve is the topic for your proposal and semester project. Be sure to read the 04a.Project Introduction lesson first, and then review the sample projects. Then answer these questions. Note that I must approve this topic before you may begin your proposal assignment.

If you have several topics you are considering, submit all of them in one upload. I will then give feedback on which may be the best choice.

Grading

If I approve your topic, you will receive a 100. Please read my comments in the grading feedback area. Note that any comments I give you regarding your project become a part of your project requirements. If I do not approve your project topic, the project will receive a temporary grade of 50/100. I will give specific reasons why this project topic needs to be adjusted within the grading comments area. You may then revise your topic/project answers and resubmit, and I will regrade. The goal is for everyone’s topic to be approved and to make a 100.

When I request adjustments or do not approve a project topic, it is based on years of guiding students through the project assignment. The goal is for everyone to select a topic that is manageable within the time limitations of the semester, enjoyable, and a good fit for their writing style and topic-related experience.
