Write a 500-word essay over the topics above or one of your choosing.
You must incorporate academic research, using at least two sources, which should be cited properly in text and at the end of the paper. If your topic is
obscure, you may use Wikipedia for background info but this will not count as one of the two sources. YouTube *can* count as a primary source for
information that depends on visual transmission.
Include the sources you used at the end of the essay in a Works Cited section (does not count toward required word count). Choose one of the following
proper citation formats:
MLA format (Links to an external site.)
APA format (Links to an external site.)
Chicago style format (Links to an external site.)
Use standard formatting
One-inch margins
Font (pick one of the following): Times New Roman, Calibiri, or Cambria
Font size: 12 pt
Double-spaced
