 Hi Class,

For this assignment, you HAVE to follow APA 7th Edition Style. If you do not have the book, I suggest getting the APA 7th Edition manual. Additionally, please follow attention-to-detail to the assignment instructions. Many students get deducted points on their paper because of not following instructions. Common mistakes include forming paper in the first-person versus third person (No “you” “I” “Me” “Our”) should be “the author of this paper,” The paper’s author,” etc. etc. Also, make sure you follow the example paper as closely as possible.

Also, remember, this has to be a NEW PAPER. You are not modifying or copy/pasting any previous work. This will result in a failing grade.
