“The Importance of Professional Citations in Academic Writing: A Guide for Students”

The paper must be typed, double-spaced, 3-4 pages of text (not including title page, outline,
or references). Use 12pt font, Times New Roman. Page limits must be strictly followed –
each page over/under results in one letter grade per page
For students who write 2 pages and a few sentences, this does not count as 3 pages. I expect a full 3-4 pages of typed research
Must include a minimum of 5 professional citations 5 professional citations (must be research-based journals and
NOT lay journals –see a partial list of acceptable and not acceptable sources). Books and internet sources
