All papers must be typewritten, with reasonable font sizes and margins (12pt maximum; 1-inch margins). Unless otherwise stated, papers should be at least 1 to 2 pages in length, double-spaced, and submitted via eCampus.
Assume when writing that the reader has no prior information on your topic -- then you will explain and fulfill each prompt completely.
Assignments are due as listed in the course schedule, by 11:59pm. Late papers after the 3 day grace period will be accepted for half-credit.
I highly recommend that you write your papers on a separate word processing program, and then upload to eCampus, rather than composing directly on eCampus. Technology has a way of causing problems when you least need them!
Where necessary, others’ work must be appropriately cited. Plagiarism is unacceptable, and will result in a zero.
