Your topic does not have to be cleared with me, although for most of you I will see the topic in your proposal. You are not required to use the same topic as the proposal, but I encourage you to do so. You will save yourself time and and build a better project this way by letting your research and thinking work on a particular problem at length. If you decide on a more specific, or slightly different version of the project after your proposal, youre welcome to shift the focus of the report without clearing it with me.

You will be expected to gather information from outside sources (books, articles, personal or phone interviews, government documents, etc.).  The documentation format to follow is APA.

Format

If your major is anything other than English or history, you are to use the format specified by APA.  English and history majors are to use the format specified by MLA.

the location and content of the parenthetical citations in the text itself
the accuracy, usefulness, and smoothness of insertion of quotes, paraphrases, and summaries
effective use of a logical organizational structure for the essay
a clear and effective statement of the thesis in paragraph one of the paper
effective body paragraphs that are unified, coherent, and complete.  I will choose at least one at random at look at it very carefully
