This is the Home Page for students enrolled in Web 1213.  If you are a student accessing this page for the first time, please take a moment to familiarize yourself thoroughly with its contents. It contains links to all the Sections, as well as the other main sections of this Website, and much useful information about the class.

  
     
 

The Course Packet from previous semesters has been replaced by a textbook and two .pdf files.  The .pdf files are located in Section 1 and Section 2 of the Web 1213 Course Site.  You will have to download these two files.  I recommend that you print both of them.  Printing will make the essays easier to work with.  Make sure your pages are numbered.  The big handwritten numbers in the top right-hand corner of each page are the correct numbers.  If these numbers did not scan (or did not print) you will need to number the pages after you print them.  The Estrich article is on pages 1 and 2 in the first .pdf file.  The second .pdf file begins with the Christensen article on pages 3 and 4 and goes on from there.  You should have a total of 12 pages when you are done.

In order to be able to do the download, you will need to download the Adobe Acrobat Reader (if you do not already have a version of it loaded on your computer).  There is a link to that Adobe Acrobat Reader file on the MSC homepage.  If you click on the Frequently Asked Questions About Blackboard link on the left side of the page, then click on Plug-ins, you will get a list of downloads.  One of them is Adobe Acrobat.  Just click on that link and follow the instructions.

  SUBMISSION PROCEDURE  
     
 

Note: In order to submit essays for Web 1213 and have them evaluated, you must be a student in good standing at Murray State College, be officially enrolled in Web 1213, and follow the procedure described below.

All essays must conform to the guidelines listed in the Statement of Policy on the Web 1213 Course Page.  If you have not yet read the Statement of Policy, please do so now.  Essays which violate these guidelines will not be accepted.

All assignments MUST be submitted as an attachment to an E-mail message.

This E-Mail message MUST contain—in the big blank Message portion at the bottom, not on the Subject line in the Heading section at the top—the following information: the Student's Name, the Section Number, the Outline/Paper Number, and whether or not the attached assignment is a revision.  Many students just type their paper headings into the Message section of the E-mail to which their essay is attached.  For example:

John Smith

Section 2

Formal Outline for Paper 1

Not a revision

 

Submissions which do not follow ALL of the above requirements will be deleted, unread.
 
     
   
     
  GETTING AROUND  
     
 

Web 1213 students should bookmark the Web 1213 Home Page and use it as their base for approaching and completing each section of the course.

In the blue and white table at the top of this page you will find information specific to the page and links to all Course Pages, the MAIN page for the site, and the Murray State College Index Page.

In the white and blue table directly below you will find links to all the Sections of Internet-based COMPOSITION II.  Each Section is set up using exactly the same format.

The Sections contain the reading assignments for Web 1213, specific information about all paper assignments for Web 1213, as well as PowerPoint presentations which explain the background information necessary to completing those assignments.
