Required elements

Students earn their grades based on the Grade Rubric for Week 4 Individual Assignment: Elements of a Contract Paper. It will be inserted with comments at the end of each graded paper, along with other specific comments inserted directly into the paper itself. A grading scale (i.e. A -F) is provided in the Instructor Policies (Spiering, 2018). So, students earn high grades by satisfying each bullet point in each section - Content, Organization/Development and Mechanics.

Please note that the Mechanics section of the Grade Rubric requires the integration of research in APA format, including in-text and reference citations.
