[Course Description]

Students at Purdue have diverse academic interests and professional goals, and while not every student at the university strives to
become a career writer, the ability to communicate creatively and effectively is important to all of us. Each assignment through the
theme of Writing your Way into Purdue has specific goals. The Literacy Narrative focuses on WHY you are at Purdue and in your
major. The Library Report helps you learn research skills and understand recourses at the library as well as learn about the history of
the University and its relation to YOU. The Discourse Community further explores your discipline and pushes you to QUESTION
the world around you by looking at controversies in your major. Lastly, the Museum Exhibit Internship Project teaches you
professionalization and prepares you for future career and internship OPPORTUNITIES during your college experience.

[Course Goals]
Introductory Composition at Purdue is designed to help you:

build confidence in your abilities to create, interpret, and evaluate texts in all types of media;
develop knowledge and inspire new ideas through writing;
understand, evaluate, and organize your ideas;
hone and expand critical thinking skills;
understand what it means to write in different contexts, for different audiences;
develop, articulate, and support topics through a variety of research methods;
become an effective writer who can respond credibly, accurately, and convincingly to a variety of writing situations.

[My Teaching Philosophy] - You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself. Galileo GalileiI

I believe the best teaching philosophy is you get what you put in. I cant force you to learn, this is your own responsibility, Im
just steering you into the right direction with various outcomes in mind. I believe that a student should be actively engaged in
his or her own education. That often includes but is not limited to student led seminars, activities that involve various
disciplines, multimedia approaches to the class, in-class writing, discussions, reflective writing, and more. I find students retain
more information when actively engaged with their own education and taking part in teaching others. And never forget, at the
end of the day, learning should be fun.

[Required Texts]
In this course, we will use the following two textbooks, as well as supplemental materials
that will be provided during the appropriate unit. Your 106 textbooks are:
Everyones an Author by Andrea Lunsford, Norton, 2013 (ISBN 978-0-393-932119)
Composing Yourself, 2014-2015 by Blackmon, Haynes, and Pinkert, Fountainhead
Press, 2014. (This text is available only in campus bookstores.)
Cheaper by the Dozen by Frank and Ernestine Gilberth.
*Kindle edition on Amazon is also fine
*Other readings will be provided throughout the semester.

You must also have the following materials:

Every assignment must be turned in stapled or with a binder/paper clip. Failure to do so will result in a 5 point
deduction to your final grade on the assessment (piles of loose papers will NOT be accepted)
Index cards for the participation card to be handed in everyday unless otherwise stated on the course website,
email, or in-class
A binder, folder, or notebook in which you will keep your assembled coursework (recommended)
From time to time, you will also be making copies of your work for peer review. I cannot copy these for you; you must
have a small budget for making copies (around $15). Copies must be printed before class! Even if we are meeting in the
computer lab, once class has officially started, everything must be turned in on time or be considered a late assignment
with 5 points marked off the draft. If this is a final assignment you will lose 10 points [ See Late Work Segment]

Over the course of the semester, you will accumulate 1000 points.
Each unit will require written pieces that support the final product of the unit. EXPECT to hand in drafts, proposals,
storyboards, and other written pieces during the project as part of your project or unit points.
Participation Cards *Congratulations! You are starting this class with 150 points! But, you have to work hard to keep
these points. As part of the Participation and Professional Behavior component, students will be expected to bring into
every class (including conferences and lab days) an index card with one critical question written down either about the
reading, ideas/questions about the assignment, etc.
Good Examples) I found in the reading that the author mentions being influenced both by music and literature? Is it possible to have
multiple literary narratives?
Bad Example) What was the point of this chapter? What is a Literary Narrative? (This is a bad question if the reading for the week clearly
defines what a Literary Narrative is)

I will leave this up to your discretion, but be aware that unprofessional conduct will not be tolerated. You will be warned
if your questions are not up to par and after two warnings you will be marked points. Each missing Participation Card is
5 points, which can quickly add up. Other ways to lose participation points is NOT having a draft for peer review or any
other required material needed for class such as textbook, reflection, etc.
Blogs *You will have due by the end of the semester 10 blog entries. You will have 5 prompted blogs but otherwise you
must create a 5 list bucket list [to be submitted with your first blog entry] of things you would like to do at Purdue and
then periodically throughout the semester do these items such as See a play or Buy a Purdue hoodie. Each entry will
be due on a Sunday by midnight on the designated blog space, the 5 bucket list entries will be due by the end of the
semester but it is recommended you dont leave these till the last minute. The bucket list entries should at least be 300
words for full points.
Extra Credit *Extra Credit assignments will be provided throughout the semester and discussed in class. One will be to
attend a lecture or Purdue production (theater, concert, etc) and another a group PSA. Details will be discussed in class
later in the semester.

Sheble :: English 106 :: Spring 2015

[Conferences]
English 106 has a conference component, which means you will meet either individually with me or with a small group of your
peers and me nearly every week. You may not be in your conference for the entire class period. I will provide for you a
conference schedule that will tell you when you need to be ready for your conference, expect this email on Sundays. Missing
your conference is counted as an absence. Please be on time or it messes up the scheduling and I may not be able to see you.
Remember your Participation Card!
In addition, if you want to discuss class topics one-on-one, or if youd like to discuss your grade, I will happily meet with you
during my office hours or we can schedule an appointment. You can always stop in and say hello too.
[Description of Grades]
90-100 (A)You did what the assignment asked at a high quality level, and your work shows originality and creativity. Work in this
range shows all the qualities listed below for a B; but it also demonstrates that you took extra steps to be original or creative in
developing content, solving a problem, or developing a verbal or visual style. Additionally, signs of professionalization
80-89 (B)You did what the assignment asked of you at a high quality level. Work in this range needs little revision, is complete
in content, is organized well, and shows special attention to style and/or visual design but missing components in the A category.
70-79 (C)You did what the assignment asked of you. Work in this range tends to need revision, but it is complete in content
and the organization is logical but needing work. The style, verbal and visual, is straightforward but not enough time was spent.
60-69 (D)You did what the assignment asked at a low level of quality. Work in this range tends to need significant revision.
The content is often incomplete and the organization is hard to discern. Verbal and visual style is often non-existent or chaotic
Below 60 (F)Dont go here. I usually reserve the F for people who dont show up or dont do the work. If you give an
assignment an honest try, I doubt you would receive an F. If you feel you put in your best effort and still received an F, you
might consider dropping the class.

[Assignments and Format Guidelines]

Whatever style you are comfortable with, as long as it is accurate and consistent and you have spoken to me beforehand if you
do not go with the traditional MLA we will be discussing in class. Otherwise, MLA style for the essay (double-spaced, 1-inch
margins, standard font 12-point).
Purdue Owl MLA Resource: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/
Work you hand in to me should have the following in the top left corner of the first page:
Your name
Name of instructor
English 106
Assignment # or Name of Final Assignment Discourse Community
The current date
In the footer or header of every subsequent page, you must put your last name (only) and the page number.
Unless otherwise announced, I will collect all assignments at the beginning of the hour. You must have everything prepared
ahead of time including stapled or paper/binder clipped. The final draft of your paper must be submitted ADDITIONALLY on
bblearn. On the rare occasion I might ask you to email me an assignment it must always be in .pdf format. Occasionally we will
also work in PowerPoint or other programs that would also need to be saved in .pdf or the appropriate format.
Filenames for electronic documents must include your name and the name of the assignment. Dont save your project
as memoir.doc. Save it YOURLASTNAME_memoir.doc or something similar, so that your file can be identified clearly when
I have twenty on my desktop.
[E-mail Etiquette]
In week two you will be submitting as a writing assignment that will address such e-mail etiquette. For the meantime, this article
gives the best guidelines, which will later be addressed in class again: http://mleddy.blogspot.com/2005/01/how-to-e-mailprofessor.html. You dont have to read all the comments, but read down to them.

Sheble :: English 106 :: Spring 2015

*Every email must include your name, a proper subject header, and be professional, courteous, and respectful or I may not
answer.
***Please also be aware that I will send frequent e-mails to the course list. Check your Purdue e-mail regularly. I
typically send conference assignments/times on Sunday. It may take up to 48 hours for me to answer your e-mail
[Grammar and Spelling Problems]
First-Year Composition is not a course in grammar. If you are rusty in your grammar, you have a textbook that includes a
handbook. If you need other resources, ask me for help. However, from time to time, we will have quick refresher courses in
grammar or mechanics; in addition, we will have workshop sessions on how to proofread for grammar and mechanics. If you are
having problems, you should see me and/or go to the Writing Lab for help.
[Drafts and Revising]
At least one draft of each paper will be written for peer review in class. Your papers should and will go through multiple
revisions. Revision is a process we all must go through to write well, think well, and learn well. I expect you to revise your first
drafts by writing more than one version of your papers. By that, I mean you need to add material, cut out extraneous
information and words, reorganize your thoughts and arguments, and develop your ideas more. I will give you peer review
handouts that will guide you through this process as you work with each others' papers.
[Missed or Late Work]
You must submit your work on time. We will do a good deal of peer review in this course, and if your assignments are late, you
will not receive the valuable feedback you need for revision nor the points associated with your handed-in drafts and peer
reviews. Late work may be accepted under extenuating circumstances and only if you consult with me before the class period in
which the work is due. If you need an extension, you must ask at least 24 hours before the assignment is due (and I will
not always say yes). With that said, if you find yourself overwhelmed and unable to complete an assignment, please come talk
with me...but do so BEFORE the assignment is due. I expect you to do your best work and to turn work in on time, but I do
know that sometimes life happens.
As for Late Work Any early material such as draft, peer review, etc will already be marked off on your assignment rubric. If
the final assignment or assessment is late I will accept it but you will lose 10 points towards your final grade on that assignment
for everyday missing. If not turned in after a week you will get a 0 on the assignment.
[Professionalism and You Cell Phone Policy]
Please conduct yourself professionally at all times. You should not harass, threaten, or belittle others in any way. If you do, you
will be removed from the class (perhaps permanently) and could be reported. You should listen respectfully to the views of
others.
Your cell phones, iPods, etc should be silent and in your bookbag (not on your desk). I have a very strict phone policy. Every 3
times I catch you with your cell phone out I mill mark you absent without any warning. If you have your cell phone
out during a group or individual presentation I will take away 10 participation points. You should always respect your
peers and give them your full attention. That said, there will be times in class when I will say you can have your cell phone out
that is the only thing they are acceptable. Computers, iPads, or similar devices will be tolerated in class for notes only if I catch
you on social media or playing games I will ask you to put it away and your computer rights will be taken away, I dont give
second chances on this. There will be specific days I will ask individuals to do some research for brainstorming purposes in class
using various technologies such as phones, computers, etc. Just dont abuse this right. Additionally, if there is some circumstance
where you absolutely need your phone (wife is pregnant, mother in hospital, etc) just let me know and we will work something
out.
[Attendance]
We cover a lot of material in this class. In order to participate in discussions, activities, peer reviews, and in other instruction
activities, you must be present. I realize that sometimes you have illnesses or circumstances beyond your control, so I am
allowing you four absences without attendance penalty. If you miss more than four classes, your final letter grade will be
lowered. Every class missed after 4 will be 50 points marked off your final grade.
Often if you talk to me regarding your absence we can work something out if it is regarding a personal crisis. I will excuse
absences for illness only if you have the appropriate documentation (a signed doctor's excuse). In addition, I expect you to let me
know before class via e-mail when you are going to be absent. If you are a member of PMO, a member of the Purdue Marching

Sheble :: English 106 :: Spring 2015

Band, a Purdue athlete, or a member of another group that officially represents Purdue University and you anticipate time
conflicts between your university-sanctioned event and this class, please see me.
I also expect you to take responsibility for what you miss in class. I will not come to you to tell you what you missed. I will not
spell out everything you missed if you e-mail me the question, What did I miss in class today? Ask another student or come
see me during office hours.
[Tardy Policy]
Sometimes were late. It happens. If you must arrive late, please come in quietly and do your best not to disturb the other
students. Do know that for every 3rd tardy you will be marked absence unless you have some excuse or talk to me ahead of time
due to having to run across campus from class to class. And as a personal pet peeve, if you show up late because you were
waiting for your Starbucks coffee, I will not accept you into the classroom.
[Campus Emergencies]
The website on Emergency Preparedness is at www.purdue.edu/ehps/emergency_preparedness/. In the event of a major
campus emergency, course requirements, deadlines and grading percentages are subject to changes that may be necessitated by a
revised semester calendar or other circumstances beyond my control. Here are ways to get information about changes in this
course.
1) Check the course website.
2) Check your e-mail.
3) E-mail me at msheble@purdue.edu
Purdue University is a very safe campus and there is a low probability that a serious incident will occur here at Purdue. Emergency
preparedness is your personal responsibility. Purdue University is continuously preparing for natural disasters or human-caused incidents with
the ultimate goal of maintaining a safe and secure campus. Lets review the following procedures:
To report an emergency, call 911, To obtain updates regarding an ongoing emergency, and to sign up for Purdue Alert text
messages, view www.purdue.edu/ea ]
There are nearly 300 Emergency Telephones outdoors across campus and in parking garages that connect directly to the Purdue
Police Department (PUPD). If you feel threatened or need help, push the button and you will be connected immediately
If we hear a fire alarm, we will immediately suspend class, evacuate the building, and proceed outdoors, and away from the
building. Do not use the elevator.
If we are notified of a Shelter in Place requirement for a tornado warning, we will suspend class and shelter in the lowest level of this
building away from windows and doors.
If we are notified of a Shelter in Place requirement for a hazardous materials release, or a civil disturbance, including a shooting or
other use of weapons, we will suspend class and shelter in our classroom, shutting any open doors or windows, locking or securing the
door, and turning off the lights.
[Grief Absence Policy]
If you have a death in the family, you (or your representative) should contact the Office of the Dean of Students. That office will
then notify your instructors. (See the Grief Absence Policy for Students at
http://www.purdue.edu/odos/services/griefabsencepolicyforstudents.php.
[Disability Resource Center (DRC)]
Students with disabilities must be registered with DRC in the Office of the Dean of Students before classroom accommodations
can be provided. If you are eligible for academic accommodations because you have a documented disability that will impact your
work in this class, please schedule an appointment with me within the first three (3) weeks of the semester to discuss any
adjustments you may need.
[Division of Diversity]
In this course, each voice in the classroom has something of value to contribute. Please take care to respect the different
experiences, beliefs and values expressed by students and staff involved in this course. I am committed to the concept of a safe
zone, I support Purdue's commitment to diversity, and I welcome individuals of all ages, backgrounds, citizenships, disability, sex,
education, ethnicities, family statuses, genders, gender identities, geographical locations, languages, military experience, political
views, races, religions, sexual orientations, socioeconomic statuses, and work experiences. For more information, visit
the Division of Diversity and Inclusion website - https://diversity.purdue.edu/

Sheble :: English 106 :: Spring 2015

[Computer Responsibilities and Etiquette]

Some class time will be reserved for computer work when we are in the computer lab. You must be able to access the space
available to you on the server. In addition, you must back up your documents. Make sure you have the appropriate tools to do so.
I strongly recommend a flash drive or the application dropbox. You are expected to treat all computer equipment with respect.
You must follow Purdues and ITaPs rules concerning your Internet account and software theft. When class instruction is being
taught in lab or other students are presenting/speaking you must remain responsible and not be on social media, playing the
games, or any other distracting and disrespectful activities this will result in you loosing participation points.
[Academic Integrity and Plagiarism] (additional discussion in Composing Yourself)
Plagiarism is the act of using another persons work and calling it your own. You can plagiarize by purchasing a paper from
someone and handing it in as your work, by stealing another students electronic file, by downloading someones work from the
Internet, by copying material from a book or magazine article without citing the source, by cutting and pasting material from
websites, and by using anothers ideas without proper attribution. When doing research, you need to take careful notes and
attribute your sources meticulously; you can inadvertently plagiarize someones material if you dont. I want to stress that I value
learning and honesty in the classroom. I also want to stress that I do report known cases of plagiarism to the Dean of
Students. I have, I do, and I will. You will receive, at the very least, a zero on that particular assignment; in some cases,
you may fail the entire class.
You should become familiar with the following websites related to Purdues rules and regulations. Purdue
Universitys Student Conduct Code at
http://www.purdue.edu/studentregulations/student_conduct/index.html
The Dean of Students Academic Integrity: A Guide for Students at
http://www.purdue.edu/odos/osrr/academicintegritybrochure.php
Purdue Universitys student regulations at
http://www.purdue.edu/studentregulations/student_conduct/regulations.html
The section on plagiarism is under Student Conduct, B, 2, a.
If you still have questions about what is and is not plagiarism, do not hesitate to ask me in class, in my office, during conferences,
or via e-mail. A good rule is, when in doubt, cite cite CITE!

[Nondiscrimination]
Purdue Universitys statement on nondiscrimination:
Purdue University is committed to maintaining a community which recognizes and values the inherent worth and dignity of every person;
fosters tolerance, sensitivity, understanding, and mutual respect among its members; and encourages each individual to strive to reach his or
her own potential. In pursuit of its goal of academic excellence, the University seeks to develop and nurture diversity. The University
believes that diversity among its many members strengthens the institution, stimulates creativity, promotes the exchange of ideas, and
enriches campus life. Purdue University views, evaluates, and treats all persons in any University related activity or circumstance in which
they may be involved, solely as individuals on the basis of their own personal abilities, qualifications, and other relevant characteristics.
Purdue University prohibits discrimination against any member of the University community on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age,
national origin or ancestry, genetic information, marital status, parental status, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression,
disability, or status as a veteran. The University will conduct its programs, services and activities consistent with applicable federal, state
and local laws, regulations and orders and in conformance with the procedures and limitations as set forth in Purdues Equal
Opportunity, Equal Access and Affirmative Action policy which provides specific contractual rights and remedies. Additionally, the
University promotes the full realization of equal employment opportunity for women, minorities, persons with disabilities and veterans
through its affirmative action program.
Class Schedule
This schedule is a rough outline of the semester. IMPORTANT! You MUST check your course website at least 3x a week.
The course website lists what assignments are due (including participation cards), has prompts, what assignments are due,
reading lists, essentially your whole life and how to be prepared for this class. I will stress this in class the first few weeks so the
excuse I didnt know to check online or I didnt check online will not be accepted. You will be notified by email of changes
made to the policies or syllabus.
