= How to Do Paper Corrections =

1. When you get your paper back on Showbie, open it. You should be able to see the comments listed throughout the essay.
===2. Read through my comments. Below or around each of my comments, write (or vocal note) me one back. Consider it a conversation. You may use any form of notation--Showbie now has notes. === ===3. Find the [|Keables Codes] and look up the proper rule. Write the title of the rule next to the code:  e.g. C1=Independent Clauses.  Then, write me a note telling me why you made the mistake. === ===4. Load this annotated document into the Showbie folder labeled "Paper Title Corrections." It will be a separate folder from the essay itself. ===

5. Since I left you a voice note, leave me one back--let me know what you think of the comments and how you will use the feedback for future essays.
