102

Handouts for instructors to prepare for the semester:
 * Guidelines for Writing English 102 Assignments (2017-2018) (Please be sure to develop these for your students and make them unique to your particular topic for the course. These are guidelines for //you//, not guidelines to give directly to students.)


 * Guidelines for Writing the 2-Page-Syllabus for 101 and 102 (2017-2018); if you ever have questions about why something must be included in this part of the syllabus, you can probably find the answer here in the university syllabus requirements policy.


 * The 2017-2018 Department Syllabus** is included in the //Composition and Rhetoric Guide//. However, state regulations still require that a copy of the syllabus be posted for students on Moodle. Download and post this pdf of the English 102 Syllabus for each class on Moodle.


 * New English 102 Topic Readers**: Table of Contents list for each book.

. The document to import will be emailed to 102 instructors via official work email addresses. It is essential that you use the file emailed to you and NOT import from previous sections. All material for the tour has been updated and university assessment/accreditation information is tracked via these files.

Additional resources related to MLA 8 format:
 * Directly from the source: The Modern Language Association"What’s New in the Eighth Edition" page and the MLA Style Center (which includes some great teaching resources such as this "practice template.")
 * The Purdue Owl is a great resource for many writing issues and this is no exception. Start out with their MLA Eighth Edition: What's New and Different page
 * A little less reliable, but still a solid reference is the Easy Bib page on MLA Format (8th ed.)
 * The complete handbook section (49 pages) that Norton put online.
