EXAM INFORMATION – This is worth 20% of your overall grade. Do not wait until the last minute.

Students will write original responses to provided essay questions for each section. Do not use the internet. All essays will be checked for similarities by Turnitin.com. Any plagiarism will receive a zero. YOU MUST CITE THE PAGE NUMBERS FROM THE TEXTBOOK, EVEN WHEN WRITING IN YOUR OWN WORDS.

Clearly state your four successes and four failures. It is best to write in chronological order for clarity. You do not need to write all successes followed by all failures.

Be sure to show change over time and cause & effect. WHY did these events happen? Think of yourself as a lawyer in a courtroom. It does not matter what you think – it matters what you can prove with facts.

Essays should use normal margins, 12-pt Arial or Times New Roman font, and double-spaced; your essay should be about 1000-1300 words in length; your essay should be in paragraph form with an introduction paragraph containing your thesis statement (or argument), body paragraphs, and a conclusion. All general statements must be supported by facts and include analysis of the material. Remember stay on focus and defend your thesis rather than just listing events. Leave your feelings out, instead use facts to make your point. Please do not include numerous quotes in your essay – they are just fillers.

If you do quote an outside source or the textbook for emphasis, you must cite it properly. Otherwise, it is plagiarism.
