Grade your paper (or better yet, have someone else grade it), then make any changes and staple the used rubric to your typed paper along with your handwritten outline.
Discussed final revision including:
· Add a title to your paper (centered) - Human Footprint · Must include the title of the documentary in paper:
o Human Footprint (2008)
· Do NOT underline restated thesis in paragraph V.
FCAs – Focus Correction Areas

- Do NOT underline restated thesis in paragraph V.
- Full title of film/documentary is underlined.
- No use of there is, there are, there was, there were
