You are expected to submit summaries that are representative of college level of writing. This includes correct punctuations, no spelling errors, complete sentences, and good flow of the document. You will not be able to earn full credit for poor writing. The use of AI, ChatGPT, or any online modality for writing assistance that you have no written yourself will be considered academic dishonesty and your score will be zero. This summary should be in your own words. For example, copy and pasting a sentence or paragraph word for word is considered plagiarism.
