They
should follow all standard guidelines for English grammar,
spelling,
punctuation, and paragraphing.
Writing
experts recommend that you first check the content, then revise
or
rewrite, and last check for errors in grammar, spelling and
punctuation.
Experts also tell us it is easier to catch errors on paper than
on a
computer screen, so always proofread your hard copy before
submitting
it. Read your final copy out loud before sending it to your
project
advisor; or ask someone else to read it for logic and clarity. If
grammar
and punctuation are not your strengths, ask someone with
those
strengths to read and edit your final copy before you submit it.
Projects
that have errors in grammar, spelling or punctuation will
be
returned for revision.
