Dear All,
You must aim to complete a draft of your essay over the weekend, and send it to me early next week.
I have 47 students writing an essay, and everyone will need help with their draft. If you don't give me enough time to read your work, it is possible you will not receive much guidance.
Your draft needs to be complete, and your best work - not something rushed and unfinished. Include citations and references. I do not want to have to spend time pointing out problems which you actually understand but have not included in your essay. Guidance and correction only benefits you when you have already produced your best work. Correcting errors you are already aware of is a waste of everyone's time.
Remember: first draft = best first attempt. There is no other way to reach your potential.
Remember: incomplete, rushed first draft --> improved draft, but not great.
