After debriefing the activity, students found a partner who was working on the same project as them (a college essay or a resume) and swapped essays or resumes with their partner and helped their partner by critiquing their essay or resume.
Everyone then had the rest of the period to make changes to their essay and resume.
Resumes should follow the format used on the Jennifer Chen resume of the Hamilton Resume Guide.
You may use other formats from the Hamilton Resume Guide, just be sure to copy the style closesly so that all important information is included (I singled out the Chen resume because it is one of the simpler formats that still looks very professional).
Revised drafts of essays and resumes should be submitted me to via Google Drive by the end of the day tomorrow. My Google Drive address is: caleb.collins.lhs@gmail.com .
Papers can be submitted to me personally by the end of the day in hard copy as well (Google Drive just tends to be better to use in the revision process).
