Cara Snellen Fall 2017guidelines For Written Reportspapers Written Fo

Write a scholarly research paper following Turabian format with specific guidelines on font, margins, spacing, title, paragraphs, and bibliographical references. The paper should be double-spaced with 12-point Times New Roman font, with proper indentation and justified text. The title should be centered in regular 12-point font, with no separate cover page. Paragraphs should be indented five spaces, with no extra spacing between paragraphs. The text must be written in black ink, free of contractions, slang, and spelling errors, and should avoid quotes and lifted sentences. Numbers under 10 are written out, and numerals are used for percentages and data. The first paragraph should start approximately two inches from the top of the page. All pages must adhere to these formatting rules.

In addition, students must compile and include a bibliography on a separate page, titled "Bibliography," following specific formatting rules: entries alphabetized by the first author’s last name, with a hanging indent, and single-spaced within entries. All authors must be listed; et al. is not permitted. Bibliographies should include web, journal, book, and section/chapter sources, formatted according to the style described, with accurate, credible citations. Use of online reference generators is discouraged; all entries must be manually formatted with proper details, including access dates for online sources.

Furthermore, students are evaluated on grammatical accuracy. There is a "Ping" system, deducting points for errors such as fragments, comma splices, subject-verb disagreement, spelling, font, word misuse, punctuation, missing required materials, and improper formatting. The maximum deduction can be up to half of the total assignment score. The goal is to produce clear, well-structured, error-free academic writing that communicates ideas effectively and follows the Turabian style precisely.
