ASSIGNMENT:

This last paper is entirely based on the chapter from the textbook that I gave you. Read it carefully and organize your paper accordingly.

This paper is a totally independant paper and will NOT be a continuation of previous papers. However, the information you use will be, among others, based on the information you have gathered for previous papers.

In this final paper, you will use all the skills you have learned during the semester: APA format, summarizing, comparing and contrasting, describing, analyzing, reporting, etc.

The minimum length is 5 pages. The maximum is 10 pages!

Choose one chapter from your textbook (15, 16, or 17, except if I give you permission do choose another chapter) and read it carefully to follow the directions closely!

You will need a total of 10 sources for this paper: at least 7 academic articles, at least 3 photocopied articles, and only 2 articles without an author.

YOU MAY TURN THIS PAPER ANY TIME during between the 1st and the 7th of Decembre. The 7th is the LAST DAY to turn in your final project! Once you are done, you only need to come to class on the 9th of december.

GRADING CRITERIA:

  • The grading criteria for this final project will be based on the "peer review guidelines" that you can find at the end of the chapters you choose: 80 pts.
  • APA format references in the text plus an APA reference list at the end of the paper (10 pts);
  • Correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation, 10 references, correct format and word count, plus the hard copy turned in on time and the electronic copy sent to your teacher before class (10 pts).
