Other hints:
1. The expectations do not provide the headings nor the organization. This is up to you to
determine. Headings – not formatted as a question. Headings tell me what to expect in
the next discussion. You do not Part I or Part II as a heading.
2. Everything is formatted in Times new roman size 12 font.
3. Everything is double spaced. To do this, you select Don’t add space in the paragraph
settings.
4. You must cite in every paragraph unless solely based on your experiences. If you do not
cite, you will not receive credit.
5. Direct quotes – should be avoided and when used, you must explain its relevance in 3-4
sentences. I would prefer if you avoid direct quotes as they are not analysis when you use
the author’s own words.
a. If you do not include a citation with a page number, you do not earn credit.
TITLE OF THE PAPER 4
b. If you do not have a page number when you cite a direct quote, you would use
n.p. (Cathcart, 2017, n.p.).
c. You do not use a page number unless citing a direct quote.
d. If you do not have a year when you cite, you would cite as n.d. (Cathcart, n.d.).
6. When citing three or more authors, cite all authors in the first citation. In subsequent
citations, use only the last name of the first author followed by et al. Example - (Cathcart
et al., 2018).
7. Everything cited in text must appear on the Reference page; likewise, everything cited on
the Reference page must appear within text. If this does not happen, points will be
deducted.
