Week Eight Assignments

You're doing great! Try to complete all assignments by our next meeting.

**Use this link to review the DSST Fact Sheet for this exam, which also includes some sample test questions.**

**Use this link for the DSST Practice Exams and try taking the online Practice Test #1 (small fee involved).  Take notes on any incorrect answers, further researching those subjects. Don't worry about your results. You will correct your weaknesses by studying the right answers.**

***Additional online practice tests can be taken here, for a small fee.

1) Read chapter 8 of the "Elements of Technical Writing" book.  Again, continue taking notes as you read, using an outline method, as this will help you to remember. You guys are doing an excellent job!

2) View any of the applicable online eHow "Laura Turner Writers Series" at http://www.ehow.com/videos-on_9019_technical-writing-skills.html AND at http://www.ehow.com/videos-on_9616_creative-writing-tips-students-teachers.html
Some of these videos will be helpful. Ignore those that are not applicable. You may also search the eHow.com video library (top search tool bar) for additional technical writing videos. eHow is a great resource for instructional videos and it's free. Watch any videos that correspond with your current reading material.
