· utilize no more than one-inch margins. Do not place large titles/headings at the top or bottom of the page to try and take up space on the page; this will result in a 2-point deduction.
· Include a DIRECT hyperlink to the article at the bottom of your paper; this means I do not have to make any additional clicks to access your article after clicking the link. If you fail to do so, 3-points will be deducted from your overall grade on the assignment.
