Reflection Paper #1
Combines literary and historical ways of knowing
Due: Week 6, by 11:59pm on Saturday February 18th
Late papers will receive a 5 point deduction per day it is late. I have provided a sample APA 7th Edition paper and APA tips located in the Class Resources folder in the Modules tab. Be sure you follow the example. Most students miss points because they do not follow the general paper requirements/APA format.
General requirements for ALL papers:
Include an APA formatted title page (this does not count toward the page requirement). Title page should include the title, your name, Indiana State University, course, instructor’s name, and the due date. No other information should be included.
You do NOT need a running head
Use APA section headings. This helps to organize your paper and makes it easier to read. I suggest using the major sections of the paper as your section headings.
Double-spaced.
12 point font.
Times New Roman font
1” margins.
Standard indent at the beginning of each paragraph.
Avoid using contractions

**You will earn a Zero on the assignment for plagiarizing (representing someone else’s work as your own).

How have expectations changed? In what ways have they stayed the same?
