Support your positions with the research (compare and contrast): All weekly papers are to be at least 2 full pages in length, not including the course header This means that papers should either start on the second page or start on the first page under the header If starting on the second page, the text should take up the entirety of two full pages. If starting on the first page under the header, the text should take up the entirety of the first and second page with at least five lines on the third page. While there is not a maximum length, please try to keep your papers to around 3 pages maximum. Paragraphs should be around 5-8 sentences in length. Too short and the paper looks choppy with ideas that are not fleshed out Too long and the paper looks like a wall of text and becomes difficult to follow The works cited page should start on a new page To do this properly, add a “Page Break” at the end of your content. In Microsoft word, this is done by clicking “Insert” -> “Break” -> “Page Break” or pressing Alt + I and then B. All papers are to follow MLA formatting. For full information on MLA formatting, you can visit the Purdue OWL, but here are some highlights: Papers are to be double-spaced without additional space between paragraphs The first line of each paragraph should be indented by one-half inch (this is generally automatic in Word) Works cited pages are to use hanging or inverted indentation. Each body paragraph of your papers should have at least one in-text citation If the paragraph only uses one source, the in-text citation should be inside the final punctuation of the paragraph. If the paragraph uses multiple sources for information, the in-text citation should be placed after the information from that source. Remember to source and cite information, even if it’s not a direct quote; paraphrased information also need attribution. You should have an appropriate introduction and conclusion to your works These do not need to be cited, as you’re introducing a topic or providing your final thoughts.
