Format: Your essay should follow the structure, format, layout and documentation

Mechanics. Please follow APA style for your essay. You are expected to write

2000 words or more in the essay.

* Each student MUST attend the online Citation Workshop

to learn how to follow the structure, format, layout and

documentation mechanics. Please check the Canvas for the workshop materials.

* Each student is requested to submit an essay notes (a blank note can be

downloaded in the course documents) by Sept. 21, 2019.

These notes will be returned with the instructor’s comments and must be

submitted with the final essay in order to have your paper graded. Once you

submitted the essay notes, you are NOT allowed to change the essay topic.

* Each student is requested to submit the following by Nov. 21, 2019:

(1) Essay, (2) Essay Note, (3) Proof of attending workshop at the WLC, and

(4) the photocopies of all citations

Failure to hand-in your essay notes, workshop proof or photocopies of citations

will result in a ‘D’ grade for the assignment.

* Any overdue submission of essay (both the hard copy and online submission along

with photocopies of citations) will lose 3 points for one day delay.

* Plagiarism may result in an ‘0’ grade for the assignment. In

addition, cases of plagiarism (Academic Alert) will be reported to the college.

Topics: Please follow the steps outlined below:

1. Review a topic of interest to you which is related to the focus of this course.

2. Next begin an investigation of the ‘roots’ or historical background of the issues

relating to the topic you have chosen. You must use at least 5 academic sources in your in-text citations, such as books, academic journals articles. You can not just rely on newspapers, news websites, interviews, etc. Don’t cite the instructor’s lecture.

In general, AVOID the following:

A. Topics which are specifically comparative in nature, since one needs to know a great deal about an apple and an orange before trying to compare apples-and-oranges. If you do select such a topic, can you answer the question “So what?”

B. Topics which are mainly biographical in nature, as person’s life story

is difficult, if not impossible, to do well in a short paper. This does not

mean that you ignore the contributions and comments of individuals as

they relate to the subject chosen.

Sources: Your work should show evidence of the use of a variety of sources (including, but not limited to, books, magazines, journals, videos/films, interviews, case studies and www/internet items as appropriate to the topic chosen).

Please note that plagiarism includes the followings, and is a serious offence:

1. Taking passages from your own previous work without adding citations.

2. Re-writing someone’s work without properly citing sources.

3. Using quotations, but not citing the source.

4. Interweaving various sources together in the work without citing.

5. Citing some, but not all passages that should be cited.

6. Melding together cited and uncited sections of the piece.

7. Providing proper citations, but fails to change the structure and wording of the borrowed ideas enough.

8. Inaccurately citing the source.

9. Relying too heavily on other people’s work. Fails to bring original thought into the text.

The essay/term paper is a key item necessary to successfully complete the course.
