Email to Dr. H

Communicating with your professors is really important, and email is the most common way that you will touch base with a teacher or ask a question about class. So, for this reflection, you will pretend that you are writing an email to me about an issue or question you have. Try really hard to write about an actual issue or question you have, even though you won't actually be sending the email to me as part of the assignment. How will you go about writing the email? What do you need to consider when writing it? What will make your email effective and impressive?

For full credit on this reflection, follow these steps and work for the amount of time in parentheses:

1. In your shared folder in Google Drive, create a document and name it "Lastname.Firstname.Email.to.Dr.H.F19" (2 mins)
2. Brainstorm in your Google Document about issues or questions you need to communicate to me (10 mins)
3. Brainstorm in your Google Document about HOW you need to communicate to me. What will my expectations be? (10 mins)
4. Review the guidelines for How to Write an Email to Your Teacher (5 mins)
5. Type "Subject:" and then type the subject line, as you would in an actual email (2 mins)
6. Type "Message:" and then type the content of an email you would be comfortable sending me (10 mins)
7. Proofread your work carefully after writing (10 mins)
8. Revisit your subject line. Does it still fit your message? (2 mins)

Your "revision history" in Google Drive should show that you typed out your response and took ample time to go back and revise. Brainstorm, write, and revise in the Google document so that I can see your progress. Do NOT type your response in some other place or copy and paste into your Google document. Always do all of your typing in the Google document itself.

Your finished assignment, not including the brainstorming, should be at least 100 words but no more than 200 words.
