Customize This Level 1 Heading for Historical Era 1: See assignment directions regarding what to enter here. Cite the Gutek (2011) book and at least one journal article in this section. If you mention Gutek’s name in the body of the paragraph, which is not required, insert the publication year after the first time you mention the author’s name in your paragraph. If you do not incorporate his name into your paragraph, include it parenthetically prior to the publication year as in this example: (Gutek, 2011). Direct quotes should be rare and are not required. They should make up 10% or less of any manuscript. Citations are not just for direct quotes but are also for ideas—to indicate to the reader where you found the idea. Here is one way to cite a direct quote: Gutek (2011) was correct in his observation that “Freire was a doer as well as a thinker” (p. 463). Note that there is no period before the citation; it appears after it. Here is a second way to cite a direct quote: As at least one historian has noted, “Freire’s liberation pedagogy heavily influenced critical theory” (Gutek, 2011, p. 463). Page or paragraph numbers are required for all citations of direct quotes. Each paragraph should have a clear topic sentence. All topic sentences should support the thesis statement of the paper.

Paragraphs serve to support the topic sentence of the INSERT ABBREVIATED TITLE OF 50 CHARACTERS OR LESS 4 paragraph. Ensure there is a logical progression in your writing and that you use appropriate transitions from one idea to the next. There should be no extra lines or spaces throughout the body of the manuscript. Sometimes Microsoft Word automatically inserts lines after headings, paragraphs, or sections. If you do not know how to remove these, simply do an internet search of your question: “How do I remove extra lines in Microsoft Word?” Also, you may ask a tech nerd or call Liberty’s Tech Support.

Customize This Level 1 Heading for Historical Era 2: See assignment directions regarding what to enter in this section. Notice that the headings are all Level 1 headings and are all centered and bolded per APA format. In such a short paper, you should not need Level 2 headings. Only papers of a dozen pages or more need Level 2 headings. In this section cite both Gutek (2011) and at least one journal article.

Customize This Level 1 Heading for Comparison of Two Eras: See assignment directions regarding what to enter in this section. Cite as necessary. Customize This Level 1 Heading for Biblical Worldview Analysis: See assignment directions regarding what to enter in this section. In this section, you are required to cite biblical worldview articles from Weeks 1-2 “Reading and Study” folders in Blackboard. You may also cite other sources.

APA permits the Bible to be cited, but it is never to be listed on the reference page. Here is one way to cite the Bible: John 3:16 states, “For God so loved the world” (NIV). Here is another way: The pastor opened the Bible and read, “For God so loved the world” (John 3:16, NIV). The translation is required only for the first direct quote of Scripture in the manuscript. However, if the subsequent Scripture quotes are from a different translation, the translation must be included every time it switches in the manuscript.

Conclusion: A good conclusion does not simply restate the thesis statement from the introductory paragraph, but it most definitely reiterates it by reminding the reader that the points that have already been made sufficiently support what was hinted at in the title, presented in the abstract, and introduced in the first paragraph. New support for the thesis should not be introduced in the conclusion. However, you may draw conclusions, identify trends, and discuss implications for current issues.

EDUC 703 HISTORICAL ERA ANALYSIS: INSTRUCTIONS: Assignment Description: Select two historical eras from the list below. Identify prominent philosophies during each of the two historical eras and the key tenets of those philosophies. Compare the two with each other and also analyze them in light of worldview articles from the assigned reading and studying in Modules 1 and 2. Before writing your paper, revisit Discussion Board Forum: Educational Thinker and Historical Era and read all the posts related to both of your chosen historical eras. Also, find two journal articles, one representing each of your two historical eras.

Incorporate concepts from the two articles and from the Gutek textbook and worldview articles from the assigned reading and studying for Modules 1 and 2. Choose your two historical eras from the list below: • Antiquity • Medieval • Enlightenment • Modernity • Progressive Era • Social Reform

Guidelines: LENGTH: This paper is to be 5 to 6 pages in length from the introductory paragraph to the conclusion, which does not count the title page, abstract, or reference pages. Per current APA, font is to be 12-point Times New Roman, and the manuscript is to be double-spaced without any additional space/lines between headings and paragraphs. If Microsoft Word automatically adds extra lines, see step-by-step directions to remove extra spaces at this link.

REFERENCES: Cite at least four sources throughout the paper and list them on the reference page. Of the four sources, two of them are required to be the Gutek (2011) textbook and worldview articles from the assigned reading and studying in Modules 1 and 2. The other two must be professional articles from academic journals.

STRUCTURE: See the grading rubric; it will be used for assessing this assignment. To ensure the manuscript meets the requirements of the rubric, you are to include the elements listed below.

Note the required headings are to be placed in the same order in your paper as they appear in the outline below.

1. Title Page

• Pagination: In current APA, all pages are numbered. The title page should be page 1.

• Running Head

• Title: The title should not be the name of the assignment (i.e., Historical Era Analysis). It should be a phrase drawn from the thesis statement in the introductory paragraph. It should provide the reader a hint of the topic and the main idea supported throughout the paper and may be phrased in a clever, unique fashion. The first letter of all words should be capitalized except for articles (e.g. a, an, the), conjunctions (e.g., and, but), and short prepositions (e.g., of, about), unless they appear as the first word, which is always capitalized. Center your title and position it near the middle of the page or slightly above the middle. Do not use bold font anywhere on the title page.

• Other Information on Title Page:

  • Student Name
  • Course# EDUC 703
  • University Name
  • Date

2. Abstract:

• The heading of the abstract should be centered and in non-bold font.

• Place the abstract at the top of a page by itself after the title page.

• Do not indent the first line.

• The abstract is a brief, comprehensive summary of the contents of the paper. It should present the main idea, main supporting ideas, and main conclusion/implication. Including the main ideas and conclusions in the abstract is much more important than a simple outline of the structure or headings.

• The running head on the abstract and subsequent pages is different from the running head on the title.

3. Introduction:

• Do not use the word “Introduction” as a heading for this section. Per current APA, it is optional to insert the title again as the heading above the introduction; however, no heading above the introduction is required. If you choose to insert the manuscript title here, it should be in non-bolded, centered font and should be capitalized that same way as it is on the title page.

• The purpose of the introductory paragraph is to introduce your thesis statement that will be developed throughout the paper. It is best to place the thesis statement at the end of the introduction. It is typically one or two sentences that serve as a transition into the rest of the paper. Some writers choose to place it as the first sentence of the introduction. Either option is acceptable as long as the introduction is well written and has a logical progression of thought.

4. First Historical Era:

Centered in bold with all major words capitalized, enter the first Level 1 heading. The wording of this heading should be your first chosen historical era (e.g., antiquity, medieval, etc.). In a paragraph or two, summarize the key philosophical trends, tenets, ideas, and one or two educational thinkers as examples.

5. Second Historical Era:

Similarly, this heading is also a Level 1 heading, centered in bold with all major words capitalized. Summarize the key philosophical trends and thinkers as in the first era.

6. Comparison:

This third Level 1 heading should be centered in bold and may simply be the word “comparison” or another phrase conveying your main observation in the comparison.

7. Biblical Worldview Analysis:

This fourth Level 1 heading is formatted the same way. In this section, analyze the two historical eras and philosophies through the lens of concepts from the worldview articles from the assigned reading and studying in Modules 1 and 2. You may cite biblical worldview articles from Weeks 1-2 “Reading and Study” folders in Blackboard and other sources. Cite the Bible as specified above but do not list it on the reference page.

8. Conclusion:

Centered, bolded, and in large font, this section should summarize your main points, reiterate how they support your thesis, and discuss implications without introducing new information. Draw clear conclusions.

9. References:

Center the heading in regular font. Double-space all references with hanging indents. Include at least four credible sources, two from the Gutek (2011) textbook and worldview articles, and two from academic journals.
