  15% of final course grade

This score is made up of three parts, the majority of which will be devoted to your Dialogue Journal and the Conferences that will emerge from it.

Dialogue Journal: You will keep this in a spiral-bound notebook, a binder, or anything else you think would serve well. Basically, you are going to writing in this quite regularly in both your class and in your writing group--often in response to questions posed at the beginning of class, interviews, and the rest. If you do not keep up with this--including all requisite prewriting activities, thought questions, and notes for your Final Reflections--you will not do well with this portion of your grade.

Dialogue Journal Conferences: These will be held around midterm. Basically, this is your change to "present" your dialogue journal to your writing group tutor.

Rhetorical Grammar (exercises): You will be required to complete several exercises from Kolln's Rhetorical Grammar. These are designed to help with any surface-level issues you may face.
