Format: This assignment requires you to write an essay.  You must include an introduction that states your thesis and how you intend to prove it (**THE THESIS IS UNDERLINED IN THE PROPOSAL).  In the body of the essay, make sure that you include enough evidence to back up your ideas and ensure that each paragraph clearly addresses and develops your argument.  And remember to include a concluding paragraph that sums up your argument.

Remember to provide references for all borrowed material (facts, paraphrases, direct quotations, and ideas).  Use quotation marks to indicate direct quotations.  You must provide footnotes (including specific page numbers) for all borrowed material (including from websites used in class), and you must include a bibliography.  Refer to the videos from week 1 and the writing guides noted in the course syllabus for more information about this as well for proper bibliographic and footnote format.

The essay must be double-spaced, and you must include page numbers.  Finally, remember to proof-read the essay before you submit it and make sure that your writing is clear and accurate.
