Yesterday, I assigned the students the "Stephen F. Austin Colony Brochure" assignment. This is a VERY IMPORTANT assignment as it will count as a summative grade (the equivalent of a test grade). That being the case, the brochure needs to be done well and completed on time. A poor summative grade will really hurt the student's average. If the assignment is not turned in, resulting in a "0," it will be almost impossible for the student to recover before report cards come out.
Fortunately, the opposite is also true. If students do a good job on the brochure, it can help their average IMMENSELY. This is precisely why I have assigned the brochure. Some of the students really need a high summative grade in order to pull their overall grade up prior to report cards/grade check.
The brochure is due on Friday 12/4/15 at the beginning of the period.
Full instructions for the brochure are below.
