Public university tuition in texas: why so expensive today when it was so reasonable just a decade ago?
MECHANICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PAPER:
· 1,000 WORD, MINIMUM. You can write beyond the minimum number of words if you wish. However, points will be deducted for papers under 1,000 words-five (5) points off for every 25 words under 1,000. The 1,000 word-count is a MIMIMUM. You may certainly exceed that minimum-word count. (I encourage you to do so if you have the time to do it and ideas to share.)
· Write your essay on a word processor preferably with Microsoft Word, or a word processor and then highlight your document, copy it, then paste it onto the dialogue box on the Canvas site for submission of your paper. Look over the pasted document to make sure nothing has been left out.
· PROVIDE THE word count at the end of the paper. When you type a document on Microsoft Word, Word automatically counts the number of pages and words at the bottom left of the workspace in the status bar. (If you do forget to put it on your paper but remember it before you post the assignment, put the word count on the "comments" section found to the right of the page. Do NOT mail the word count to me afterwards. I will not accept it after the paper is submitted.)
· Write this paper in your own words. Don't worry if you're ESL or if you don't think you're a good writer. I want to hear your ideas, your experiences, your impressions, all in your own words. I won't be grading for grammar. I'm grading on content and meeting the minimum requirements set out in the instructions.
· DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! Do your own work. You have to write what is in your head, your heart, your mind. YOUR words are better than anyone else's in telling me about what you know and what your think and believe. Don't risk flunking this assignment by plagiarizing because you can do really, really well on this assignment without plagiarizing.
If you do any outside research to support some point you wish to make and include it in your paper you MUST show where you got the material. You don't need to use a formal system like MLA or APA, or Turabian. You may simply, in parentheses after "quoting" the material from the outside source tell me where you got it.
Type the paper on your word processor and the highlight and copy the paper, then paste it into the submission box on the writing assignment module and submit it from there. Double space if you can but if the pasting into the dialogue box turns a double-spaced paper into a single-spaced paper do not worry...the single space is fine.
