Writing Style & Format
Please review the writing and formatting guidelines below. Please consult your instructor if you have specific questions about any of these areas.
Style & Format:
Type in a 12-point, serif font type (e.g. Times New Roman).
Use one-inch margins.
Use third person. You can use first person (I, me) when writing about your interest in the major topic.
Writing style will be professional, in mostly active voice, with no contractions, misspelling, or run-on sentences. Please take advantage of Microsoft Word's (or similar word processing software) grammatical and readability tools for checking grammar and writing style.
Use headings and sub-headings (if needed) to organize main ideas. Use bullet points, tables, or other visual emphasis techniques to increase readability of paper only when needed. Nothing is emphasized if everything is emphasized!
Include an introductory (generally describes topic and previews main ideas) and a summary paragraph (reviews main ideas and offers closing comments).
Use APA for referencing.
Provide reference list on separate page at the end of report.
