Any career you pursue, the skill of presenting yourself and your ideas will play an important role. Whether in writing, in person, across the conference room, by phone, or across continents, people need to be sold on you as much as they are on your ideas.

Part 1

Revise and finalize the rough draft of the 1,050- to 1,400-word paper you worked on in Week 4 by making corrections from your instructor and any other edits you think appropriate. Ensure that you have included the following:

A strong thesis statement that is organized so that your comparisons/contrasts are clearly presented; focus on proving your thesis statement
Support for your claims with credible references, using a minimum of three peer-reviewed sources

Ensure that your final paper uses correct grammar and punctuation. A variety of sentence structures should be demonstrated, as well as appropriate essay and paragraph structure.

Format your assignment according to appropriate course-level APA guidelines.

Submit your final corrected paper to the Assignment Files tab.

Part 2

Write a brief description of changes you made to the rough draft.

Copy and paste the document you received back from your instructor (including the comments made by the instructor) to the last page of your final version along with the description of the changes made.

If you do not include this, it's an automatic loss of 10 points. In other words, submit one attachment for this assignment with a list or description of changes made and the contents of the document that your instructor sent back to you for the rough draft).

Submit your final corrected paper along with the list of changes made, the rough draft and my coments all to the Assignment Files tab. This should all be on ONE document.

Part 3: Presentation

Create a 7- to 10-slide presentation using Microsoft® PowerPoint® to accompany the highlights of your paper.

Format your references consistent with appropriate course-level APA guidelines. Include citations in the speaker notes or in a separate reference list.

Deliver your presentation and submit your presentation file or link.

For Local Campus, deliver a 10- to 12-minute oral presentation accompanied by your slides or multimedia.

For Online Campus, provide detailed speaker notes in the presentation file or in a separate document.
