\n

Your paper should be double-spaced in Times New Roman 12-point font and with 1-inch margins all the way around your paper.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

See Module 1 Learning Unit for examples of in-text citations and references for your textbook. You should have in-text citations in every paragraph of your paper to align with the materials, concept(s), and definitions you discuss, even though your discussion was in your own words. As you are discussing materials from other sources, even though you are discussing these materials in your own words you must still properly cite sources with in-text citations and references in APA format.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Be sure to write in your own words as much as possible. Avoid using direct quotes (write in your own words), and properly cite your textbook (for the concepts), as well as any other sources you use.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Anything not in your own words (taken word-for-word from other sources) must be in quotation marks (” “) or you are plagiarizing. You should write in your own words as much as possible, summarizing and paraphrasing what you read\/hear in this course, to minimize your similarity to other sources. Even writing in your own words, you must properly cite all sources (textbook, videos, etc.) for the information you are discussing or you are plagiarizing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Do not use first person (I, me, we, us, etc.) or subjective\/opinion statements in academic or professional writing, including these writing assignments. This is not an opinion paper.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If the information you are discussing in a paragraph is all from one source (such as your textbook), cite that source with in-text citations at the beginning and the end of the paragraph. Also cite the source following any direct quotes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Helpful Hints
Sample citations for your textbook looks as follows: (Gaines & Miller, 2019) or (Gaines & Miller, 2019, p. 152). The second citation example includes a page number, which should be included in citations following direct quotes and\/or very specific information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If the content you are discussing in a paragraph is all from one source (such as your textbook), cite the source at the beginning of the paragraph (after the first sentence) and at the end (after the last sentence), as well as after any direct quotes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A good paragraph is between 4 and 8 complete, thorough, grammatically correct sentences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
