This is for you to upload the first draft of your essay. This assignment will be worth 50 points, and will be graded using the rubric posted as if it were your final submission so that you can fine tune your final submission. Your TA and Instructor will provide feedback and comments on your essay within 2-3 business days of your submission.
Your essay needs to meet the following criteria.
- At least 1500 words in length. This word count does not count your Works Cited section.
- At least four (4) sources that do not include Wikipedia. These sources must be cited in your essay using appropriate in-text citations. You may use whatever citation style is comfortable for you (MLA, APA, Chicago Style, ACS, etc.). The key here is to cite your information and provide sources.
- Wikipedia is a wonderful resource to start your research. When preparing a research paper, I generally start with Wikipedia and then refer to the sources listed there for direct referencing.
- You may NOT cite, personal websites or blogs, or unsubstantiated newspaper claims.
- Plagiarism will be evaluated using TurnItIn. You will have access to your Similarity Report immediately after submission. If your Similarity Report is more than 20%, you will automatically receive a grade of zero for this assignment and it will be investigated for Academic Integrity violations.
- If uploading a document, it must be a DOCX, DOC, or PDF file. (Canvas and TurnItin do not support PAGES documents or GoogleDocs.)
- You are allowed to copy your essay directly in to Canvas as direct text.
- All answers to the Starting Point Questionnaire need to be answered in your essay.
Your score will be broken down as follows.
- 32 points based on attached rubric.
- The rubric score will be multiplied by 2.
- 10 points for meeting the 1500 word count minimum.
- 5 points for having at least four unique sources with proper in-text citations.
- 3 points for submitting the essay.
