The librarian may be helpful. Find something of interest to you. The paper is due week 4.
· The entire paper must be in APA 7th edition formatting. The instructor has provided a template – use it.
· Each paragraph requires at least 3 sentences but a sufficient number to respond completely to each section.
· Do not copy and paste the information from the article into the paragraph. Analyze, paraphrase, summarize, etc. with appropriate citations. Do your own work.
· Do not use more than one quote per six sentences.
