Read a literary analysis written by Jessa about part 1 of The Call of the Wild. In The Call of the Wild, Buck is presented as a confident character. Jack London describes Buck at home in California and insists, “Among the terriers he stalked imperiously, and Toots and Ysabel he utterly ignored, for he was king. . . .” Even when Buck is beaten and deposited in the Arctic, he stays calm. When his friend Curly is killed by a pack, London says of Buck, “Well, he would see to it that he never went down.” Wherever he goes, Buck survives with ease. How could the final sentence be revised to present a clear conclusion? It is surprising that Buck becomes leader of the pack. Buck’s overconfidence helps him defeat any enemy. Buck’s strength guides him through the challenges he faces. Buck takes control on the judge’s farm, but not in the Arctic wild.

Assessment is a necessary part of the teaching and learning process, helping us measure whether our students have really learned what we want them to learn. While exams and quizzes are certainly favorite and useful methods of assessment, out of class assignments (written or otherwise) can offer similar insights into our students' learning. And just as creating a reliable test takes thoughtfulness and skill, so does creating meaningful and effective assignments. Undoubtedly, many instructors have been on the receiving end of disappointing student work, left wondering what went wrong… and often, those problems can be remedied in the future by some simple fine-tuning of the original assignment. This paper will take a look at some important elements to consider when developing assignments, and offer some easy approaches to creating a valuable assessment experience for all involved.
