Transcriptions Course Project Log

Privacy Notice

Purpose: This log sheet has a dual purpose. First, it allows the instructor to get a look at what actually happens in the development of the team projects. Projects that utilize information technology are relatively new to the humanities, and Transcriptions instructors need to learn more about how students actually work in this context so as to be able to adjust their methods in the future. Secondly, instructors experienced in team assignments suggest that it is important for students who are members of teams to be able to register their individual contributions. Your instruction will not necessarily be commenting or giving you feedback on your log sheets, but he or she will have a means (however imperfect) of recognizing either extraordinary effort or lack of effort. Due: This log sheet must be submitted by Monday of each week for the previous week's activities.

The purpose of online questionnaire forms in the Transcriptions Project is to help instructors customize courses for their students, improve courses, assess student preparedness or performance, and/or assemble statistical records (which may be summarized without the use of student names in reports or documentation about the project). Information gathered through this form will be used for educational and statistical purposes only. Student names will not be used for any marketing or other commercial reason and will not be passed on to any entity unrelated to the Transcriptions Project.
