Writing Assignment
• Use a standard essay format for responses to all questions (i.e., an introduction, middle paragraphs and conclusion).
• Responses must be submitted as a MS Word Document only, typed double-spaced, using a standard font (i.e. Times New Roman) and 12 point type size.

However, students who are successful in earning the maximum number of points tend to submit writing assignments that fall in the following ranges: Graduate courses: 500 – 750 words or 2 – 3 pages.
• Plagiarism All work must be free of any form of plagiarism.
• Put written answers into your own words. Do not simply cut and paste your answers from the Internet and do not copy your answers from the textbook. Be sure to refer to the course syllabus for more details on plagiarism and proper citation styles.
