All responses must be typed double-spaced, using a standard font and 12 point type size for ease of reading and grading.
Students who are successful in earning the maximum number of points tend to submit writing assignments that are 350-500 words (1-2 pages) per question.
Review the material in the textbook related to the question. You may also want to use other sources to help you answer the question, but the primary source for answering the question should be your textbook. The faculty wants to be sure you understand the concepts covered in the textbook.
