Instructions

  • Your essay should be at least three paragraphs long. A paragraph has three sentences minimum, but this is not considered a well-developed length. 
  • Use evidence and examples to support your ideas. Use quotes as evidence, and explain why you have used them.
  • You should use at least two sources, cited in a references list at the bottom of the assignment. You must use your own words to write this assignment, otherwise it is considered plagiarism and can carry severe academic consequences. If you use quotes from another author, simply cite the author’s words by using quotations and making a reference at the end of the quote, like this: “The anthropologist discovered bodies in the tomb” (Jones 1992).
