Footnote requirement:
Add footnotes to draw attention to your most prominent applications of LOs (especially those mentioned in the “LOs to be graded” section below).
In the footnote text (at the bottom of the page), provide the hashtag of the LO and at least a 2-3 sentence explanation of your application. Help the professor understand exactly why this constitutes a strong application.
Remember: the use of #thesis should be within the paper itself; the footnote is merely there to show how you believe you applied it well in the text. For each LO, footnote what you believe your strongest application of the LO is.
Footnote text does not count toward the target length of the assignment, and all applications of the (not just those that are footnoted) will count toward your grade.
Including footnotes is an important part of reflecting on your learning. It should be an occasion for #professionalism. Help the professor understand exactly why this constitutes a strong application. For samples of effective annotations, refer to the footnotes that go along with each LO example (in Why/Use of pre-class readings) written in square brackets.
