● What questions do you have about drafts, due dates, and submission details?
Dra. Nelson it is fine if I do my assignments, drafts, and reflections on google docs? or it is mandatory to
make them on word. Also, I hope to be correct with my responses, because I know it is an automatic zero if
assignments are not due on time, but I couldn’t find a clear response with the Peer Review Workshop. In
my previous class the consequences for not attending the Peer Review Workshop was 5% less of your
grade, but I think it is not the case with your class.
