Overall Feedback FROM WRITTEN PAPER
Hi ,
Thank you for submitting your second assignment! As mentioned in my previous announcement, when you receive your feedback, there will always be two sections you should view to understand your grade. These graded assignments will help you to work on the continuous process of improving your writing. The first of these is the grading rubric. This will give you a breakdown of how your numerical grade was calculated. The second area you should review is my written feedback on your work. Comments for this assignment (and for all upcoming assignments) are written directly onto the attached document. To open that file, please do the following:
Open ‘Assignments’
On the appropriate assignment, click on view (it should be blinking or highlighted)
Click on ‘feedback’
Look for the attached files in the lower left corner of the screen – your feedback will be a file with your name, e.g. ‘Name h1.pdf’
I know the instructions for many of the assignments will say to use single spacing. Keep in mind that this is typical for business documents. In our class, however, if you would use 1.5 line spacing, or more, I will be able to write my comments more easily between the lines. You will not be penalized, whichever line spacing you choose to use.
As with all of the assignments in our class, UMGC’s Labor-Based Grading scale has been applied here. The details, for reference, are as follows:
ASSIGNMENT
This assignment has two parts:
Use the skills you have already practiced in this Unit to compose a professional email requesting an informational interview. (150-200 words)
Please identify someone with whom you would like to be in contact with for professional reasons or imagine addressing your email to someone whose information you found on a career website or a company directory. In the latter case, that person could, for example, be somebody with similar qualifications to yours but holding a more advanced position than you in an organization or company in which you are interested.
Your submission should include a subject line, the main body of your email, and an appropriate sign off with contact information. Remember that your email should not be too short. It should not leave unanswered questions about who you are and why you are getting in touch. Equally, it must not be so long and detailed that your recipient will not read it!
Write a paragraph explaining the choices you made to produce the most appropriate email for your individual circumstances. (150-200 words)
Please use the following questions to guide you as you explain the decisions you made for this professional email. Feel free to include anything else you believe is necessary in understanding the reasoning behind your choices.
Did you emphasize your professional experience more than your educational background or vice versa?
Did you share anything else about yourself that might be relevant (volunteer work, hobbies, acquaintances), or did you limit yourself to sharing workplace and/or school information?
Did you explain in detail why you are interested in being in touch with the email’s recipient, or did you keep that part short?
Did you list some of your specific professional goals? If not, why?
Did you suggest meeting in person (if that is an option), or did you choose to keep things more formal and talk over the phone or virtually?
