Instructors convey assignments in a variety of ways. Some give oral instructions.
Others provide written directions on a syllabus or web page. Some outline
the major requirements, while others go into detail and supply examples
of the papers they want you to produce.
To do well on an assignment, you must understand it completely. To do
that, you must think about:
- the assignment description,
- your intended audience, and
- the library resources you need.
