A Short Paper Assignment allows you to demonstrate your research skills to your instructor and to receive feedback that will benefit you when you write research papers for future courses. With this assignment, you will learn how to do proper research and write a short paper.<\/span><\/p>\n

The file is uploaded from Assignment 1, which is the outline for Assignment 2. Use the sources in the uploaded file and add 3 more strong sources.<\/p>\n

This short paper is at least three double-spaced pages of text (Times New Roman, font size 12), and you must consult a minimum of two academically credible sources. Your bibliography and citations may be in APA.<\/span><\/p>\n

The short paper needs to be turned in through the assignment section for grading. If you use any of the information from your sources word-for-word, you must cite the source by using endnotes, footnotes, or parenthetical citations. If you read the information and write it in your own words and it is not common knowledge, then you must cite the source because you are paraphrasing someone\u2019s information.<\/span><\/p>\n

The short paper must include a cover page with your name, course number and course title, instructor\u2019s name, and date. You must also include a bibliography at the end of your paper. While composing your paper, use proper English. Do not use abbreviations, contractions, passive voice, or first\/ second person (I, you, we, our, etc). <\/span>And finally, students are not allowed to use encyclopedias or Wikipedia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before submitting your paper, check your grammar and use spell check. Remember, the way you talk is not the way you write a paper.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a paper about some segment of history, you should first do the research — read about the topic and then form a thesis. You may need to ask questions about the topic to formulate a good thesis statement. These questions are called thesis questions. Answering those questions is the basis of your short paper. A strong thesis will allow you to clearly and forcefully support the length of a short paper because you will find evidence to support the thesis. A strong thesis also allows you,  maybe even forces you, to be precise because it states what you will write about. <\/p>\n

A short paper is not like an encyclopedia entry. Instead, you assert something about the topic and then use the paper to prove your assertion. Therefore your assertion and your evidence need to be precise.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
