How to Get an A in this class

Walk around progress reports were completed yesterday.  The grade you received may have been higher than what you deserved based on your current completed work.  The following are a list of things that must be done if you intend on earning an A and 5 credits at the end of this trimester.

1.  Complete every assignment.  Posting an assignment on your blog is not completing it.  You must  1)  comment on the assignment's entry here at www.walskefilm3.blogspot.com telling me that you have posted it and that it needs to be graded.  Once I have graded it, (if necessary) I will comment on your entry telling you what needs to be done to get credit.  2)  Make the changes/corrections I told you to do and comment again telling me that you have made the corrections.  3)  When you receive a comment from me saying "assignment done,"  then and only then will you get credit for a completed assignment.

2.  Every assignment (blog entry) must have a title.  Each title must include the assignment number (except for the Seinfeld reviews).  Also include your rating of the film based on 0-10.

examples    

# 8- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button  (10 out of 10)

Assignment 5- Serendipity (8 out of 10)

Adding your rating of the film is new.  This means that you will need to revise the titles of all of your previous assignments.

3.  Every assignment except when told otherwise needs to be at least 250 words long.

4.  These critical review assignments are not summaries of the films.  The majority of your review (approximately 90%) needs to consist of your specific opinions of the film.  Specific details from the film are included to justify your opinions not to tell the story of the film.

5.  Do not waste words about "you should go and rent this," etc. 

If you have read and understood this entry, then comment on this post right now telling me "I understand what is expected of me in this class."  If you need further clarification about anything in this class, then make sure that you speak to me about it.

If you do not comment on this entry, then you will have failed at following directions.
