Guidance – Start writing your paper with these enumerated requirements in mind:
A) Include a title page but no Table of Contents and divide your paper into six heading sections per item C. Formatting and choice of font are at the discretion of the student as long as the presentation is well done, but single spacing or double spacing and a minimum of an 11-pitch font are recommended. Note in the list below that titled heading sections are required. The target length for each paper is between 4,000 and 6,000 words (there is a potential grading penalty for undershooting lower boundary but no penalty for exceeding upper boundary) in a way that effectively discusses each books contributions to PM and interesting similarities and differences between books. B) No use of outside sources is allowed, so no outside citations are allowed. Few quotations should be used. The focus is on paraphrasing from books. Citations may be handled using any well-established citation method such as APA. For all content, its understood you either quoted/paraphrased from a course book or the ideas are your own. Any use of undocumented, unallowed secondary resources may result in FSU Honor Code violation and lowering of the grade. Turnitin will be used by the instructor to monitor potentially improper use of non-allowed content.
