Details on the Case Study Extra Credit
(for up to 100 points)

 

    • Extra credit Case Study papers allow you to cover an additional course topic in a more comprehensive fashion.

    • You may write on any topic related to this course, but your paper must reflect work and include materials not considered a normal part of this course.

        • Your Extra Credit(s) must also be different from the topic of your Research Project.

    • You may do one Extra Credit Case Study option, and one or two Extra Credit Film / Lecture / Event Reviews
    • Extra credit Case Study papers can receive up to 100 points -- if they are turned in on time.

    • Papers that are more in the genre of an "op-ed Links to an external site." or an "opinion piece Links to an external site." will be treated as an Extra Credit Review project (which qualifies for up to 18 points)

    • NOTE: The Canvas Gradebook entry for Extra Credit requires that “out of zero” be used when setting up an Extra Credit assignment.

      • Don't be distracted by that. 

      • Extra Credit points are simply added to your total score. They turn up in the sum total of points in your Canvas Gradebook, not in the part of the Canvas Grade book where the individual Extra Credit is listed (as counting for "0" points).
