This essay should be between 750 and 1000 words. The format is APA which requires the following:
Abstract Page which follows the Title Page. This is more of an introduction which is no more than a page but no less than a paragraph.
Similarity will be graded (make sure you have no more than 25%)
Make sure you cite your sources and use a minimum of 3 sources, more would be better. NO Encyclopedias, Wikipedias, or history.com sources!
Use at least one historical periodical, i.e. JSTOR
There are several topics listed in the syllabus. Again, make sure you do not write on a broad topic. Example: The WWII is too broad a topic, however you can select a battle, and as far as domestic politics the Great Depression is to broad a topic but maybe you could like to address the Dust Bowl, TVA, Social Security or National Recovery Act, etc. If you have any doubt about your topic being acceptable please email me by 29 August for me to approve it. You may choose another topic if you wish but it needs to be approved as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you turn your work in on time. If it is turned in LATE there is a 10% penalty deduction AND if you have not turned it in before the 5 March at 11:59 pm it will be a Zero.
Works Cited Page at the end. A minimum of 4 sources is required BUT more is better. Make sure one source is from a historical periodical like JSTOR.
