ACTIVITY 6: LIA4 TASKSTREAM: Performance Task 2

Now that you have completed Module 7 on Drama, go to Taskstream and complete LIA4 Task 2.

Students who are successful on the performance tasks generally exhibit similar qualities. These students fully engage in the aligned learning resources and work through the Guided Learning Tool before beginning work on assessment tasks. Carefully reading the task directions, making note of each section will help students develop an understanding of the task requirements. Reviewing the task rubric further helps students understand task essentials. Students report that developing an outline or graphic organizer is often helpful as they begin working on specific tasks. Additionally, it is suggested that students review tasks upon completion for inclusion of all required elements, proofreading for any mechanical errors, and proper citation of all sources is essential prior to submitting for grading.

 

CLARIFICATIONS: LIA4 Task 2 

  • The sample outline in the Task directions provides a framework for your paper.   This outline uses a structure based around your three comparative points. You will shape your paper by presenting a point and then applying it to all the novels. 
  • Please note that each letter or numeral in the Task outline does not necessarily require just one paragraph; you may need to write more or less than one paragraph for a specific element. If you are writing less than one paragraph for an element, make sure that you still have a fully developed paragraph in which to place the observation of the element. 
    • For an example, Points (1), (2), and (3) under “D. Body—Content” may all be included in the same paragraph.
    • Additionally, points (4), (5), and (6) require at least one paragraph each, but your analysis may necessitate a second paragraph.
  • The phrase “comparative point” in the outline implies both “comparing” and “contrasting” the elements, as needed.
  • Please feel free to contact the Literature mentor through the community if you have further questions.

SAMPLE PAPERS:
  • You may read example student papers in MyLitLab and in your Literature textbook (but please remember that they are in MLA format, not APA format, which is required by WGU).
  • To find the “Drama” papers in MyLitLab, go to the Writing Process Tab, look under Student Papers, and go to the “Drama” section.
  • To find the papers in your textbook, open the inside front cover and consult the index box on the bottom of the right-hand page.
