You must use at least three resources for the paper which can include journals, newspapers, books, quality Internet sources, and/or personal communications. I highly encourage you to use the Internet – but NOT Wikipedia! If you choose to use the text as a resource, you must use three additional resources. All citations and references must be formatted according to the APA style; samples are attached to these guidelines. The structure/nature of your paper will be dependent upon your topic. If it is a topic you are just learning about, a descriptive paper probably makes the most sense. If it is a topic that you have had some experience with, a persuasive paper is a better way to go. Your paper should be type-written in 12-pt. font, with 1” margins. You may submit your paper by email. Report covers and title pages may be used if you so choose. Be sure to check your spelling and grammar.
