ESSAY INSTRUCTIONS:
Your submissions should always be in MLA Style: Essay three will be 750-1,000 words required. Please recall that the 750-word range is the minimum requirement and just meets the assignment for an average grade consideration. Quality work, however, may slide the earned grade some, but not likely by two rubric levels.
In the upper left-hand corner of the paper, place your name, the professor’s name, the course name, and the due date for the assignment on consecutive lines. Double space your information from your name onward. All papers should be in size 10 or 12 Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins all the way around your paper. All paragraph indentations should be indented five spaces (one tab) from the left margin. All work is to be left justified. When quoting lines in literature, please research the proper way to cite short stories, plays, or poems.
You should make use of the online APUS library. Avoid all uses of Wikipedia (or any encyclopedia or dictionary) and reference guides. Be careful that you don’t create a cut and paste paper of information from your various sources. You may not use previously published material; your ideas are to be new and freshly constructed. Also, take great care not to plagiarize; if in doubt, cite the source.
