Each paper needs to be between 800-1,000 words- no more and no less.
You must also use 12-point Times New Roman font.
You need to save your file as either Microsoft Word format or rich text format (.rtf) in order for the summary to be uploaded.
Make sure you take notes while reading the selected article in your own words. Do not copy and paste directly from the selected article because matches to other authors’ works of 30% or more will result in an automatic zero
At the top of your summary, you must include your name, the name of the article you selected, the name of the journal that the article was taken from, name of the authors of the article, and your total word count. An example is below:
Student name
Name of article
Name of journal that the article was in
Authors names
Word count
Your summary should not include any direct quotations from the article you selected. Put everything in your own words and do not summarize the abstract section of the article.
