After clicking on ‘Extra Credit Information’ the following screen shot appears. Students should read all of

the documents in black font before beginning. All of the documents in green font are the articles to be

read for the extra credit assignments. There will be a total of 7 – 9 articles to choose from. Each a paper

is potentially worth 2 points extra credit and students may earn a total of 14 extra credit points.

The screen shot below is what you will see once you click on one of the articles (in green font).

Before submitting a paper to Blackboard, you will write the paper on a computer and save it to either the

computer’s hard drive or a removable device such as flash drive. The name you save the paper under will

include some aspect of the article’s name. Though SafeAssign accepts a total of 9 different formats,

remember that I only accept doc, docx, or pdf.

When you upload your paper to Blackboard click on the “Browse My Computer” button (outlined in

purple). Do NOT use the ‘write submission or comments’ options for uploading the paper. The comments

can be used to send me a comment about your paper.

To the left is what the menu looks

like with the Extra Credit

Information with an orange box

around it.

Note: I’ve added the orange box

for clarification.

Before leaving Blackboard click on either of the blue ‘submit’ buttons (outlined in red).
