More LIS 201 extra credit opportunities

LIS 201 students: Here are three more opportunities for extra credit.  Each of these is worth 0.5 points.  You may choose to do all three, or two, or one, or none.  It is extra credit, so it is not required.

(1) Attend a Go Big Read event (see http://www.gobigread.wisc.edu).  There are lots of different events you could choose.  Document your attendance somehow and forward that documentation to your  TA.  And then post a substantive summary of and reflection on the event to your discussion section blog.

(2) Attend a 2-hour or longer Software Training for Students workshop before the end of the semester (see https://sts.doit.wisc.edu).  Document your attendance somehow and forward that documentation to your  TA.  And then post a substantive summary of and reflection on the training to your discussion section blog.

(3) Attend a 30-minute or longer tutoring session with a student mentor at the Writing Center before the end of the semester (see http://www.writing.wisc.edu).  Ideally this one should focus on your writing assignment #2, although if you attend a session for a writing assignment for a different class, I will count that too.  Document your attendance somehow and forward that documentation to your  TA.  And then email your TA with a brief summary of whether you found the tutoring section useful and what changes you made to your writing assignment as a result.

Again, each of these is worth 0.5 points.  Cheers, GREG
