Research Papers

Your research papers should be 5 p. min., double space. Proper documentation of sources is essential. You may use your preferred style of documentation. The structure and organization of ideas should be well crafted. A standard research paper should include a title, the course name and professor’s name. It should consist of introduction (why you chose this topic and why is it important?) the main body and conclusion. You may use footnotes for cited works and a bibliography on the bottom of the document.

The main body of your paper should include your main points of argumentation. The body should have separate paragraphs for your supporting points and ideas. Direct quotations should be highlighted either with Italics or with Bold and in quotation marks. You are not allowed to quote a text from a source without mentioning the author and the source title. Overall structure of the paper will affect your extra credit grade. Inserted pictures, charts and other visual aids are appreciated.

Note that papers must be presented in conjunction with oral presentation to qualify for extra credit. (see lecturer for a date for presentation)
