Welcome to the Writing for Professionals class!
I designed this blog, so you can share and comment on your written work. Please post your assignment each week, read and give constructive feedback on others' work as often as you want. For this week, you have to write an email.
Ideally, the person who gets the feedback should take the comments into consideration and revise their work before submitting a final draft to me. In order for this to happen, it is preferable that you submit your papers each week by Saturday, so you can have enough time to read your classmates' work.
Finally, this is a place to learn, please do not worry about making mistakes.

Hello Marina,
ReplyDeleteThank you for giving us this blog.
I have a question:
> "For this week, you have to write an email."
Does this means that I should write an email on this Blog?
How about sumerizing of NY Times?
Sorry, I am a bit confused.
Hi Hiromi,
ReplyDeleteNo problem, you are always welcome to email me with any questions.
Yes, post it on the blog and bring a hard copy with you on Wednesday.
You do not have to bring me a summary, but you have to be ready to summarize it verbally to the others in about 10min. It helps if you read the article a few times, underline some important facts, and practice retelling the article before you come.
Regards,
Marina
