The body of your paper must be 2-3 pages in length (not including reference list), single-spaced. A Reference List formatted using APA style must appear at the end of the assignment – remember that it is necessary to reference every source that you have used in the preparation of your assignment (even your textbook!). In-text citations (APA style) must appear throughout your assignment to indicate where you used referenced information. All references in your Reference List should have a corresponding in-text citation within your assignment.
Use only open-access sources (avoid citing books other than your textbook or articles that require a special access).

Please refer to the Purdue OWL (Links to an external site.) website to proper format your paper (click on the articles in the left side bar for APA formatted reference list and in-text citations).

Save your paper in .doc (.docx) or PDF format and submit as attachment. Give your paper a unique title.

Please do not hesitate to utilize and contact the library resources at FSW. They can be very helpful for you if you have not written a research paper recently.
