Grammar, punctuation, and spelling count. Cultivate your own voice/style. You will be writing a lot of papers in college, at least three in this course, so find your voice. This means papers by different students on the same prompt should be distinct. It does not mean the papers are about you. Do not write about yourself and do not use a conversational tone or self-references.. You must demonstrate understanding and familiarity with Franklin’s Autobiography. This is not really possible if you have neglected to read it. These are reading response essays, not research papers. There should be no other source material beyond Franklin; do not summarize content you have read on the internet. A paper with no citations is an F paper.
