For your initial post, you will submit your outline and thesis for peer review into the discussion forum. Please COPY and PASTE the outline and thesis directly into your initial post in the discussion forum for others to view. DO NOT attach it as a document. There is no need to add additional text to your post as this may be confused with the content of your thesis and outline.

As a reminder, when you are submitting your outline, each part of your outline should be one section of the book that you are examining. The thesis statement should also beonesentence. It should specify the author, the novel, and the specific areas you intend to discuss in your paper. See your Writing About Literature guide located in the Content folder of Week 01 if you have any questions on how to craft an outline or how to write a thesis statement. Remember, a good thesis statement guides the entire paper and states what you will be discussing in the paper. It should be the last sentence of your introductory paragraph in the paper. Here you may post it at the top of the outline. Let the thesis guide your outline as well.

For responses to your peers, you will use theattached peer review rubricto evaluate at least two of your classmates' outlines and thesis statements. Read the instructions on the rubric very carefully before evaluating your peers' outlines. You will complete one rubric for each classmate, then COPY and PASTE it into your response post. DO NOT attach a file.
