the assignment will be well-edited, thoughtful, and written in true essay format. Points
will be deducted for short papers, poor grammar, bullet points, and the like. The papers
will be checked with turnitin.com, so do not collaborate with others. Quotes from the
book can be used, but should not be the majority of your paper and should be marked

experiences you have had related to this section, information from the research you
found in the books that sheds more light on the topic, questions/arguments about the
reading you want to bring to light, thoughts on applications of the material to your own
life, etc. This is your time to thoroughly read the material and understand it.
