...TCase Manager Comments: Joe, I have expressed my concerns about your progress during these weeks. You have missed your appointment with your Academic Advisor. You have missed one of your ENGL 101 class. You were very distracted during your ENGL 101 class last Friday; you have talked with your instructor about you failing it. I know that you are trying to solve your problems by yourself; however, I think that at this point you need help from our tutors to keep you focused on completing your assignments. You need to come to Achieve and work for at least 20 hours a week to make up all the points you have missed so far. When you come, do not work by yourself, ask a tutor to be with you, the number of hours you have spent at Achieve over the past weeks is in discordance with the number of hours you have worked with tutors....

...General Writing resources and Requirements NOTE: Please use this as reference for each writing assignment! Your grade may be adversely affected if you do not follow all of these requirements. Email or call your instructor if you have questions. The required literary essays for this course demand careful planning, drafting, revising/editing, and correct documentation. The following resources and requirements provide instruction on writing, research, and avoiding plagiarism. Carefully review them before writing your literary essays. Plagiarism Plagiarism encompasses more than the use of printed sources without giving proper credit. It means handing in writing in the name of one person that another person has composed, revised, edited, or proofread without the instructor's approval. Accordingly, the following guidelines are set down, and you must study and understand them from the outset. The instructor will assume, since this issue is clearly discussed, that you will be responsible for understanding and applying it. Any fact that is not common knowledge, any idea, phrase, or paraphrase that is taken from a printed source, from a lecture, sermon, or radio broadcast must be documented. Any work submitted in English 102 will be understood to be the work of the student submitting it and his work alone. Taking credit for someone else's proofreading ability, suggestions, ideas, or words is plagiarism. An exception to this definition is group work assigned and directed...

...Running head: INTERNET AND EDUCATION IS THE INTERNET A GOOD EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE STEPHANIE HUNT JULY 14, 2013 ENGL 101-D01 Summary In today’s society, students are relying more on the internet for their educational resources. The internet can be a valuable resource in certain situations; however, students should not rely too much on the internet as a resource. Students should use the resources the library has to offer such as books, newspapers, magazines. These resources are more reliable than most internet resources. Resources such as books, newspapers, and magazines are a better choice because they are supported by facts and reliable sources that can be verified. In Judith Levine article “I Surf, Therefore I am” (Salon magazine, 1997) Levine, says, “most of the data my students Net is like trash fish.” I believe she made this statement because she feels most of the information students acquire from the internet is not useful and reliable. Students need to make sure they are getting information from reliable sources. I am guilty of using an internet as a resource to study for a quiz and I did not do well on the quiz because some of the information was not reliable. On another note, the internet has been a valuable educational resource for me and other online students. University’s like Liberty University that offers online education is a great resource for adult learners...
