Formatting and Structure Instructions for the two assignments The first essay must be 1000-1250 words in length, or four to five double spaced pages, not including references. The second paper must be between 2000 and 2500 words in length, or 8 to 10 pages of text also not including references. Both essays must be written in 12 point font and double-spaced.

Your paper must have page numbers and follow the instructions on citing and referencing that I have posted on JUMP. Each of your references must be a proper academic source. Some Websites are considered proper sources of information, but they should be used for supplementary purposes. Academic journal articles and books should be your primary sources of reference.
