Your final paper must be between a minimum of 15 pages in length of double-spaced text, excluding references.
2. Required Elements:
We will follow “Student Paper Required Elements” from the APA style guide (7th edition). This means that your paper should include a title page, page numbers, text, and a reference list in APA style. Do not include a running head, author note, or an abstract. Use the student-specific version of the title page. Follow the guidelines for creating an effective title for your paper.
3. Formatting:
Your paper should use an 11-point Calibri font exclusively.
Line spacing, margins, paragraph alignment, and paragraph indentation should follow APA style conventions.
Level 1 Headings should be used for the required components of the paper. You have the option to include Level 2 headings if you feel that it better organizes your paper.
4. Writing: 100% of the paper must be written in your own words. This means that no direct quotations are permitted. Whenever you are including content from one of your sources, use an APA style in-text citation and be sure to include your source in your reference list.
