School instructions: <\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
The student will write an 18-25-page research-based paper in the current Turabian format that focuses on some aspect of economic or business history in the United States. The bibliography is included within the 18-25-page range. While the focus of the course is from 1900 to 2010,
\nstudents may seek permission to write on a subject occurring between 1865 and 1900. The paper must include at least 20 primary sources and 15 secondary source references. Individual letters or documents within a collection count as separate sources. Your paper must meet the following criteria:
\n1. A clear thesis that answers a historically significant question(s).
\n2. Be based on primary sources with significant support for secondary interpretations. You will use at least 20 primary sources and at least 15 secondary sources. The sources must be a good mix of evidence, and the secondary sources must be drawn from both books and articles.
\n3. A strong narrative supported by evidence in a systematic manner to support the thesis. Remember to use strong transitional devices between sections of the paper and frequently remind readers how each array of evidence supports the thesis.
\n4. Significant engagement with professional interpretations of the background or specific topic you researched.
\n5. Written in the active voice, past tense. Use block quotations only sparingly, if at all. Always integrate quotations into your own words rather than use them as independent sentences. Cite your evidence often.
\n6. The Department of History at LUO requires that students use the Turabian Notes \u2013 Bibliography citation style. You must use footnotes with the Turabian footnote citation style within the paper. Then, you must use the bibliographic format you practiced in this course for the final bibliography. Consult the LUO Online Writing Center Quick Guide
\nto Turabian for answers to common questions, including formatting considerations regarding margins, fonts, and spacing.
