Project Requirements and Rubrics Notice that several essays require collaboration with other classmates both in AP English and outside of AP English classes. It is important to learn to work with peers and share researching responsibilities. Developing communication skills is just as important as honing research and writing skills. The skills that you acquire during these research assignments will be used throughout your college career and into your occupational career. Keeping track of and documenting your work is essential to maintaining your part of the group grade. Many essays are analysis essays; use this for guidance with any analysis essay.
