This is especially true with online programs, whereby the professors don't get a chance to meet and speak with their students face-to-face and so, coursework is usually an exclusive representation of the student. Knowing precisely what the professor is emphasizing, whether it be stellar writing and grammar or daily online attendance or even just submitting those three papers per course, will eliminate much superfluous effort on the student's part.

I couldn't agree more. The professor is the one giving your grade and it's important to know if they are judging you on grammar and spelling as well as content/sentence structure. I have had both kinds. As soon as they correct a mispelled word or change the verb form, I make sure future papers follow suit. Why distract them from the content (the real stuff) by forcing them to make additional comments on your paper. It might mean a higher grade. Plus, it teaches you to produce better future presentations of documents. Sharon,
