Basically, a run on sentence is a sentence that has two complete sentences that do not connect properly. An example of this would be "<em>I am cold I wore a blanket</em>" to correct this you could say "<em>I am cold</em>, so<em> I wore a blanket</em>"
A compound sentence would be a sentence with two independent clause, joined by a coordinating conjunction. An example of this would be "<em>I will go shopping </em>or<em> I will go camping</em>"
