Project 3

Project 3 is a student-designed assignment. The first thing we had to do was decide if we were going to work alone or as a group. We chose to work as a group. Next we had to create an assignment sheet. This assignment sheet would have to explain what to do for our project. We would be graded on how well we followed our own directions. For our assignment sheet we started by looking at Professor Morris’ previous assignment sheets. We took pieces from her assignment sheet and created our own. For the first part we would be writing a paper similar to the paper from project 2, we would be including the works cited page but wouldn’t be following the source directions. For the second part we would be sending out emails to all of the clubs and organizations at Kutztown to see if they were interested in participating in our Adopt-a-Trashcan Program. We would be creating a Facebook page and putting up flyers around campus to promote our program. Once we heard back from the clubs and organizations we will have them create signs that will go into the big belly solar compactors. They will be responsible for trying to keep the area their trashcan is in free of litter. After creating the assignment sheet we presented it to the class to see if they thought it was enough work to be worth 20% of our grade. When they agreed that it was enough, we got started on it. We would each be responsible for writing a part of the paper and making a flyer. We would be creating an email together to then send out to the clubs and organizations. Now we are going to meet with Professor Morris to see how we have made progress in our project.
