I hope your week is going well. I've delayed this message for a couple of days in hopes that you catch up with last week's assignment that you have not handed in yet. Remember to add a little more context around your bullet points in the upcoming assignment! Again, I've included the high-level outline for each content area that you should follow when writing this week's assignment. Remember - this assignment should be placed in the ECW. I've included instructions to remind you how to use this tool. Note - If the content you have written does not fit onto the page, please just send it to us in an email. Thank you!
