4.7 Chapter Assignment

Assignment Formatting, Style, & Length Requirements

  • Assignment formatting requirements: Arial 12-point font; 1-inch/2.54cm margins; single spaced; APA in-text citation style, reference section and cover page.
  • Use proper paragraph style within the answer to each question.
  • Clearly indicate which question is being answered using corresponding question numbers (do not write out the entire question). Follow-up questions must be answered as part of the numbered question. Avoid using automated numbering as it alters the left margin of the document, resulting in a margin larger than 1-inch/ 2.54cm.
  • Assignment length: approximately 1000 words in length (give or take 100 words) (reference section and cover page not included in word count).
  • Divide your time/space evenly across all questions.
  • Proofread your submission to make sure it is clear, well written and intelligible.

  • In ALL your answers be sure to demonstrate knowledge of and engagement with the chapter materials. This is achieved through supporting points/arguments/positions via reference to the course material using in-text citations.
