Remember that presenting someone else’s work as your own is plagiarism. Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources. It is important that you cover all the topics identified in the assignment.

Covering the topic does not mean mentioning the topic BUT presenting an explanation from the context of ethics and the readings for this class I am a stickler for good organization in everything. I do not want to have to dig for your answers. For instance if an assignment asks you to provide three examples of something I suggest that you number them 1-3 so I can find them easily. I also expect that when you submit something as a narrative you pay attention to how you organize your thoughts: use paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting sentences; and change paragraphs whenever you introduce a new idea. Also if there are multiple parts to an assignment use sub-heads within the paper to organize them. To get maximum points you need to follow the requirements listed for this assignments

1) look at the word/page limits

2) review and follow APA rules

3) create subheadings to identify the key sections you are presenting and

4) Free from typographical and sentence construction errors. REMEMBER IN APA FORMAT JOURNAL TITLES AND VOLUME NUMBERS ARE ITALICIZED. References American Psychological Association. Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (7th Ed.). Washington DC: Author.
