Acceptable lengths for the term paper will be 12-15 pages, including references, charts, graphs, etc. If your term paper is late you will lose 10% of the remaining term paper portion of your final grade for each day it is late. Term papers must be submitted using Turnitin on BlackBoard. Self-plagiarism counts as academic dishonesty and includes recycling term papers written for previous classes and otherwise failing to reference any work you wrote elsewhere. "Patchworking" is another form of plagiarism many students are not aware of.
The paper instructions are very general but 5-7 sources also need to be throughout the paper as well as the paper has to be written in ASA.
