Your title page and bibliography do not count toward your total pages. And you must submit your bibliography again along with the final paper.

Directions for Bibliography, Outline, and Research Paper Choose a research topic/question from those listed below. Write a 3000 word paper using no more than six sources including at least three academic sources. Academic sources include peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles, academic books which are edited and published by a university press, and science-based magazines such as “Nature,” “Scientific American,” and “Smithsonian.” Use APA style for citations within the text of your paper and in your bibliography. Make sure you understand this requirement. You do not need to write an abstract or use headers/footers.

Keep in mind:

1. Your title page and bibliography do not count toward your total pages. And you must submit your bibliography again along with the final paper.

2. Wikipedia is not a valid source because anyone can edit a page. Do not use Wikipedia as a source. However, you might use it to get some ideas or sources.

3.Make sure you have read College’s policy on academic misconduct and that you understand the meaning of plagiarism. Plagiarized papers will receive a zero!
