\nHow to Get the Articles for the Paper Assignment
\nYou can get the articles from the online databases at the Delta library website. Here\u2019s how you do it:

\n2. Along the top of the Library Resources screen, click on \u201cIndividual Periodical Titles\u201d
\n3. When the next screen pops up, type in the title of the journal that you want to search, such as Journal of American History. Click on the green Search button.
\n4. You will then get a list of journals with the one you want at the top with a search box underneath it. In the search box, type in the beginning of the article you are searching for (for example Nurse Gordon on Trial or Pachuca Panic). Hit the search symbol (magnifying glass icon) next to the search box or just hit \u201creturn\u201d.
\n5. Your article will then show up \u2013 it is easier just to download the pdf and then you can print it out and mark it up as you are reading it.

\nWriting and Turning in Final Paper Guidelines
\n\u2022 No hard copy papers accepted \u2013 must be turned in electronically in Canvas (instructions below).
\n\u2022 About 80% of your paper should be in your words. You will use some quotes from your source but they should not make up the bulk of your paper.
\n\u2022 You can use other sources, such as your textbook, but the assignment is about how well you read the article and answered the paper prompt question \u2013 this is NOT a research paper, but a close analysis of one source. Using other sources is not encouraged or required \u2013 in fact, it can count against you. The vast majority of students will only use the article they chose from the list as their source.
\n\u2022 No \u2018recycling\u2019 from other papers you may have done. This must be an original submission for this class session.
\n\u2022 Must use at least one cited quote from your article of choice. You must use either MLA or Chicago Style citation format. You will include a Works Cited page or Bibliography with a full citation of the article at the end of the paper.
\n\u2022 Essay must be 900-1200 words in length, double-spaced, one inch margins all around with a 10 or 12 size font that is clear and easily readable (no fancy fonts, italics, all bold). Ten point automatic deduction if paper is not double-spaced!
\n\u2022 Underline your thesis! Your paper needs a thesis and it should be located in the first paragraph, typically located at the end of the first paragraph
\n\u2022 Keep personal comments\/reactions about the article out of the paper. Maintain academic tone — no slang unless it is quoted from a source, use formal English throughout the paper, no conversational tone.
