Use in-text citations for the textbook and format them according to APA guidelines. Every single sentence that is not your own idea must have a citation at the end! You do not need to use citations for your article, but do NOT plagiarize. Please refer to the plagiarism tutorial in Module 0 if you are unfamiliar with how to do this.
Avoid informal language. Use an academic, formal tone.
Use direct quotes very sparingly. It is best to paraphrase more often and cite the source properly using APA formatted in-text citations.
Use the abbreviated APA paper template in this Module
I always grade papers using the following breakdown – 60% content, 20% organization/style, 20% grammar/mechanics/APA.

Enjoy the assignment!
