There are two questions on this exam and you must write a separate essay for each one; be sure to answer all parts of each question. Each of your essays MUST be a minimum of 4 FULL pages in length.
Use a font size of 12, Times New Roman font, double-spacing, with a one-inch margin. You may need to change your margins as the standard default setting for some word processing programs is 1.25 inches so be sure to check this before you begin writing. Also, shut off your paragraph auto-spacing: the command that puts an extra line of space between each paragraph.
You MUST draw heavily from the textbook when writing each of your essays. I want to see LOTS of examples from the textbook complete with page numbers. You can either put the page numbers in parentheses at the end of your sentence or refer to the page numbers directly in a sentence: On page 56 of the textbook it says
Failure to include lots of examples from the textbook, with specific page numbers, will hurt your grade so, again, make sure you draw heavily from the textbook. Do NOT give me direct quotes from the textbook; write the essays in your own words. Also, do not be tempted to copy material from the textbook, change a few words, and try to pass it off as your own writing. Please note that you can ONLY use the course textbook for this exam; no outside sources, such as additional internet sources, can be used. Should you be tempted to do any of these things it will be considered an act of plagiarism.
