is necessary.
Do NOT use any other outside sources. You are only to use the article provided.
Do not turn in this assignment UNTIL you have looked at the mistakes you made on the works cited assignment and the quoting and paraphrasing assignment. You should not make the same mistakes. Be careful with the placement of periods and quotation marks.
Once you have submitted, check back later to see your Turnitin Score. Your score needs to be less than 20%. If it is more, revise the essay and submit again. For more information about how to read the Turnitin Originality Report, go back to Modules, scroll to this week’s section, and click on the tutorial.
Remember: Your introductory paragraph needs a thesis statement

for proper formatting of citations. For the works cited page entry, treat the article as a newspaper article.
The assignment is due by Sunday at midnight by clicking on the assignment tab above.
IMPORTANT: The essay must be a minimum of 500 words, be double-spaced and follow MLA guidelines. Submit the revised essay before Sunday at midnight. If you wait until Sunday evening to submit, Turnitin will be busy, and you might not get your essay submitted on time. I do not accept late work, so do not wait until Sunday evening to complete your assignment.
