Write a three page paper (not including citations and the bibliography) with a title page and bibliography following the format used by your major or department: APA, MLA or CSW. History majors must use Chicago Style. Style guides are available under Resources and via the APU Library’s homepage.
You must have at least two scholarly sources (not websites, textbooks,. book reviews, or juvenile literature) and as many primary sources as you can find.
YOU MUST CITE YOUR INFORMATION, whether a direct quote or not. This rubric is available to understand how points are distributed in the paper. A lack of citations is an automatic point deduction!
Make sure your paper has a solid thesis statement and points to be covered in the introduction paragraph.
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). Before submitting your paper, check your grammar and use spell check.
