Base your analysis on the themes and concepts from the readings and lectures. Provide evidence for any arguments you make with quotes and paraphrases accompanied by in-text citations and a Works Cited page. Any outside sources must be properly cited.

Parameters

  • The assignment should be double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins
  • Use MLA for citing references and quotations
  • Due: Sunday at 11:59 p.m. ET

Review the assignment rubric by selecting first the three-dot menu at the top right, and then the Show Rubric option.

Plagiarism

You are expected to write primarily in your own voice, using paraphrase, summary, and synthesis techniques when integrating information from class and outside sources. Use an author’s exact words only when the language is especially vivid, unique, or needed for technical accuracy. Failure to do so may result in charges of academic dishonesty.

Overusing an author’s exact words, such as including block quotations to meet word counts, may lead your readers to conclude that you lack appropriate comprehension of the subject matter or that you are neither an original thinker nor a skillful write.
