Essay Length (500-600 words)
Â
Thesis: Your essay should have a thesis statement. A thesis statement is a single sentence that directly answers the question above.
Location of Thesis:Â The thesis should come as the last sentence of your introductory paragraph.Â
Balance:Â Â Be sure to take into account different events and people (name names) from the entire period, prehistoric to 1803.
Support: You should provide examples that support your thesis statement. Examples of support to include your essay are names, dates, key events, groups, and ideas. These examples should be drawn from our readings such as the Terry Jones text.Â
Grammar:Â Correct grammar and spelling must be used throughout your essay; do not use slang or text language. Do not use vulgar language.
Plagiarism: The paper must be your own work; do not collaborate in writing this paper; do not cut and paste material from the internet or any other source. Use your own words in your essay. Simply changing a few words in a sentence or sentences found in the Jones reading or another source is not using your own words.  Review syllabus concerning plagiarism.  Â
Plagiarized essays may receive a zero (0).
Sources: Use as your source the Jones text on our course Moodle and, if necessary, other material found on our course Moodle. As this is not a research assignment, outside sources are not necessary. Â
Do not use Wikipedia as a source.  Do not use .com sites for as sources.
Â
Use of Wikipedia or .com sites may result in a zero (0).
We have plenty of material assigned in this course to use in an essay.
Citing sources:Â All sources of information used in the essay must be properly cited.Â
If you are using the Jones text, simply state Jones, chapter title, and page number.  For example: (Jones, The First Inhabitants, p. 40).
Failure to cite Jones text may result in a zero (0).
If using another source such as Knowla, simply cite it as Knowla.
