AIS 101 Online Spring Semester 2023 Dr. P Instructions and Topics for Assignment #6: Reading and Writing Questions about “Geronimo,” Chapter Four from We Shall Remain Instructions: To write your Writing Assignment #6, consider all thirteen study/reading questions below. Then choose one of the questions from #7 to #13 (below the line) as the topic question for your short essay. Your assignment should be 275-325 words long. Your assignment will lose points if it is too long or too short. Aim for about 300 words. Your assignment should be typed and double-spaced, using Times/New Roman 12 pt. typeface . A Word document is preferable. This format makes it easier for me to grade and to write comments upon. Make sure that you state your topic question verbatim at the top of your assignment, so that the reader knows for sure which one of the several topics that you are responding to. You will lose points if you fail to do this as a courtesy to the reader. The topic question itself does not count in terms of your assignment’s word count. Turn in Assignment #6 in by no later than 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, March 8, via BBLEARN assignment drop box. No late submissions will be accepted. For Group #2, Assignment #6 is a major graded assignment. Your mini-essay will receive both a number (0-100) and a letter (B, etc.) grade, along with detailed written comments and feedback from the instructor. For the other three groups, Writing Assignment #6 does count , but as a minor graded assignment within the category of averaged minor assignments. Your effort will earn a grade of credit (95 points); partial credit (60 points); or no credit (zero points), and it will likely receive no written comments or feedback from the instructor. Partial credit is automatic if your assignment is too long or too short. No credit is automatic if you do not submit your assignment by the official deadline. Credit is automatic if your mini- essay fulfills the assignment and is submitted prior to the official deadline. Questions? Write me an e-mail. Saluda, Dr. P

Explain. 8. Does Geronimo remind you of any other American Indian leaders whom we have met so far this semester, like Tecumseh and/or Major Ridge?
