All assignments must conform to the following standards:

• Double-spaced.
• 12 point font in New Times Roman or 10 point font in Arial.
• One space between paragraphs with no indent on paragraphs OR no space between paragraphs but a short (half inch) indent on paragraphs.
• Citations should be included in the text (e.g. Smith 2004) and fully listed in a “References” section on a separate page at the end of your assignment.
• References must be listed in the exact style prescribed for the course.  See “How to cite references in this course on pages 11 – 13.
• No cover page.  Simply put your name, student number, and a title at the top of the first page.
• Include page numbers on your book review and term paper, although a page number is not required on the first page.  Page numbers are not required on the one-page short essays because there is only one page.
• Submit your assignment to Turnitin.com by 12:00 midnight of the due date.  Turnitin.com provides us with a submission time for each essay.  We use this time to determine if your assignment was submitted on time.
• There is no need to hand in a paper copy of your assignments – everything will be done digitally.

Special Note:

All assignments must meet an acceptable standard of writing quality.  Assignments that do not meet an acceptable standard will be rejected.  One opportunity will be offered to rewrite and resubmit the assignment so as to meet an acceptable standard.  An acceptable revision will be graded from a maximum of 75%.  Two rejections will result in a zero for the assignment.
