1500 word minimum term pepar

A term paper of no less than 1500 words will be written on 

a Topic which you should select from the list of Language 

Development Hypotheses provided at the bottom of this 

guide in BLUE FONT. This list is also available in the Class 

Requirements Section of the online Course. The Term Paper is 

to present a discussion based on a minimum of three articles, 

books or chapters in a book (excluding the class Text, of 

course), that describe, support or refute the hypothesis you 

have selected from the list. Please note that you can do all 

three in the same paper if you wish. A minimum of three 

references in APA format will be included at the end of the 

paper. The entire paper, however does not need to adhere to 

APA format. This pertains to just the references. An example 

of APA format is also provided in the Class Requirements 

Section of the online Class.

Also, at the end of the paper you should include a short 

Appendix, which will answer three questions: 1. What were the 

databases, if any, that you used to find each article or book; 2. 

What was the search strategy you used (i.e., the search words 

you used) in each database to find the articles; and 3. Was 

each article that you cited an example of Primary or Secondary 

research? 

Please email the Term Paper to the instructor both as an 

attachment and, for back-up purposes, as text copied and 

pasted directly into the email message.
