Hard to believe, but this is the last day you'll have in class to work on your philosophy project. By the next time we meet, it will all be done and we'll have a few days left together before you graduate. I have been so impressed by all of the hard work and thought you have been pouring into these essays. There have been deep conversations all around the room and individual people challenging their own thinking and arriving and new realizations and questions. I'm so excited to read them all!
The last thing you'll need to know from me is how to submit it - it's simple. I've set it up as an assignment on turnitin.com and you can just click there and upload it.
Now, if you have been working with the sections as separate files, you'll need to merge them before you do that. Just be sure each section is labelled so I know where it begins.
You do not need to worry about putting page numbers on it all, but if you can, I'd appreciate it.
Do be sure your philosopher section includes the names of the texts you read - that way you don't need a separate works cited page.
Lastly - do take a moment to give it a title - something more than "my philosophy paper" - you have been working on this for a month and it deserves better - something catchy with a sense of what the reader is in for.
It is due on Monday by midnight. If you turn it in after that, you will have to take the final, and there will be a grade reduction.
That's it - good luck with it all today and this weekend. You may feel busy and overwhelmed now, but think of how great it will feel to have it done - a true sense of accomplishment from living the examined life.
