A major component of this class is a minimum 2250-word (excluding the separate cover, abstract, and
reference pages), APA-style research paper. It represents a substantial effort on your part to research
and write an in-depth paper. No more than 25% of the written assignment in this course may be attributed
to referenced sources. Your paper must be 75% original thought. Again, your cited work and quotations
must not exceed 25%. You must use and cite a minimum of five primary sources (with no more than two
being internet sources) in the text and References page. Dictionaries and encyclopedias are not
appropriate or considered adequate as referenced sources. Turnitin originality reports provide the
instructor with the word count in addition to the percentage of wording attributable to other sources. Do
not cut and paste from other sources. Your failure to cite sources by using in-text citations and failure to
use APA quotation formatting where necessary will result in referrals as potential Academic Code
Violations. Whole or partial papers may not be submitted from previous courses or classes to fulfill this
course requirement and will be referred as a potential Academic Code Violation.
