Use the following format: Overview, Opinion Statements, Resource Citations. Use the headings to divide your work into the 3 required areas in your paper.
Overview Provide an overview of your topic using at least two resources. Highlight the most important concepts. The overview should be no more than 500 words. That’s about 7 – 8 average length paragraphs. Do not place your opinions in the overview. This is an academically oriented portion of the assignment. Your opinions are welcome in the next portion of the paper. Your overview MUST include citation of sources within the text of the document. You are not the originator of the information being presented. The authors must be identified. Failing to provide citations within the content of your overview is considered plagiarism.
Opinion Statements Given the material you’ve organized and presented in the overview, offer your thoughts on specific aspects of the topic or the topic in general. Use higher order critical or creative thought! Your opinion statement should be approximately 150 words in length.
