Copy Edit the World #2

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


This is a handout for a lecture that my friend received. In the sentence "To learn more come and here Dr. Berman speak and answer questions", there should be a comma after come, and instead of here it should be hear.

This is a flyer for a meeting on the health care bills. On the line that tells the date and time, I think from should be deleted because there is already a hyphen inbetween 5:00 and 6:00 which already indicates the "from" factor.

This is the last page of my Art History syllabus. Under the section titled "How to fail this class" there are several mistakes. For number 3, instead of a period, there should be a comma. For number 4 delete the w in classmates, study group should be lower case, and there should be a period at the end.

I don't know if this counts, but this is from an oragami book. There should be an "a" inbetween is and Dinosaur. And dinosaur should be lower case.

  1. Yes, I'll count the dinosaur!

    Lecture: 2 errors x 4 points = 8 points
    Health Poster: 4 points
    Art History syllabus: 12 points (item #3 is OK as is)
    Dinosaur: 4 points

    28 points in all.

    You've already gotten the required 25 points for this exercise, plus 3 points extra credit. You can earn up to 15 points extra credit for Copy Edit the World, so I will add 12 points from this batch to your existing 3 points of extra credit.
