—— Also, if you do NOT have a legitimate and correct Bibliography page (Works Cited page), then that is minus 20%!

____________________________________________________________________

Outline is worth 20 points out of the 200 points on the final paper.

The Outline is designed to help you write a well-organized and well-argued paper.

To receive full credit for the Outline, make sure that you are following all of the requirements, below.

— OUTLINE needs to be on 1 (ONE) page (or 2) so that you can see the entire road map of your paper, to see the logical flow of your paper, and to make sure that all of your evidence examples support your main argument. If your Outline runs over onto 2 pages, that is o.k., but try to keep it to 1 page.

— OUTLINE must be a bullet-point outline, or you can use dashes — like I do in the Outline, below. Make it a brief Outline, to the point, so you can see the plan for your paper. The OUTLINE is NOT a draft; a draft comes later. NO credit for outline if you just turn in an additional copy of your paper or something almost the same as, or very similar to, large portions of your paper; that is obviously NOT evidence that you did an OUTLINE ahead of time.

— You can obviously change your Outline later, as you write your paper and decide which evidence best supports your main argument. You might also change your main argument, if you find that the evidence leads you in a different direction than what you originally started out with.

— Plagiarism / Copying = 0/F: — Academic Integrity — College Policy: — YOU MUST do YOUR OWN WORK. This requirement to do your own work is part of the De Anza College academic integrity policy and is in the syllabus and is in place to make the process fair to students doing their own work. Do NOT copy from a book, article, website, or from any other source, or from another student or any other person; doing so, or allowing others to do so, will result in a 0/F on the Outline. This same policy applies to the final paper, as per the syllabus.

Technology: — Students are responsible for ensuring that they are using the most recent version of their internet browser and have other technology prepared and working within Canvas before uploading their work. — Excuses such as “My internet stopped working,” does not qualify as an emergency. (After teaching online for several years, I have heard all such sketchy excuses before, and they usually occur about 5 minutes before the paper is due, by people who have procrastinated, and it’s not fair to the students who turn in their work on time.) Therefore, do not wait until the last minute to upload the paper. You must have a backup plan at a friend’s place or neighbor’s place who has wi-fi or you can use free wi-fi at a public library (including some libraries where the wi-fi extends into the parking lot), or other such sources of wi-fi, and plan this out ahead of time.

To practice uploading a paper using Turnitin within Canvas: >> Help in Black Left menu in Canvas, >> Canvas Resource Library for Students, >> Sample Canvas Course, >> click on Go to the Course, >> Assignments, >> Turnitin Assignment.

Digital Receipt Printout — Print this for yourself to ensure that you have evidence of uploading your work. This Digital Receipt can be printed immediately after uploading your work into the Canvas assignment (using Turnitin INSIDE Canvas). The Digital Receipt can also be printed from the student’s Assignment or Exam page in Canvas, by clicking on the specific Assignment / Exam, and then look under “Options” or click on the small icon on the far right side of that page (hover over the icon to see “Digital Receipt”) and then download and print a receipt.

Students are also responsible for making sure that there is evidence of their submission date and time and file on their student Assignment page.

The Extra Credit assignment will be available in the Extra Credit uploading page on:

— Thur. Mar. 26th, at 9:00 am.

GOOD LUCK with the work on your paper.

I look forward to seeing your Outlines. 🙂

Please feel free to email me or call me during office hours with any questions.

5th Paragraph Plan:

— Restate your practice main argument in an interesting way in your conclusion.

— Also restate why the history is significant, or still important, today. — To help do this, restate how the current event (a U.S. event on the news in the past 1 or 2 years) — that you mentioned in your 1st paragraph — helps reveal the historical significance and ongoing impact of the history today in the U.S.

__________________________________________________________________________

3. PAPER FORMATTING — REQUIRED:

________________________________________________________________

REQUIRED to avoid LOSS of POINTS on PAPER:

_______________________________________________________

— Put Your Full Name (& Nickname) at very TOP of your first page.

— Under your name, put: HIST 17A, and Section # (ends in Z).

— Then under the class, put the full Date: Month and Day, and Year.

— Double-space your papers. (NOT 1.5). DOUBLE – SPACE.

— 1-inch margins on all sides: — right, left, top, bottom.

— Use only .pdf or .docx files. NO links. Unreadable or incorrect file or location = 0/F.

— 4 pages MAX. (To grade all students on same amount of work.)

— Page limit is also to prevent rambling and to help focus the paper.

— Bibliography ONLY can be on its own additional page after the paper.

— Standard readable 12 point black font. (NOT 11, NOT 10).

— Put Page Numbers (for the paper) in top right corners of each page.

– Have a TITLE for your paper which reflects your main argument.

— Underline your title and center your title above your first paragraph.

— Use in-text citations WITHIN the paper to cite your sources.

— See Quoting and Citing, in part #5 of these instructions, below.

— Use a Bibliography, or Works Cited page, at the end of your paper.

— Follow Chicago Manual of style (free, online manual) for Bibliography.

— See part #6 of these instructions, below, to find Bibliography examples.

— See link, below, in section called “Helpful Websites,” further down.

— Put in black bold font the names of your documents, terms, and film in your paper — ONLY bold in black the names of the evidence (name of document or author, name of terms, name of film), NOT the sentence. This will help you to make sure that you have everything, and it also helps me to see the evidence in your typed paper, and to grade faster, and get the grades in more quickly.

— How to Double Space: — If you are using Word, then, in the Menu at top of screen, click on “Format,” and then click on Paragraph, and then when the box appears, under Indents and Line Spacing, look for Spacing, and then set Line Spacing to “Double.” (NOT 1.5). DOUBLE. For Double-spaced. And then click on “OK.” (You may need to highlight your selection of text in document.) — If using another word processing program, then search on the internet for the instructions “how to double space” (and add the name of your word processing program, or Google Docs, or whatever you are using), and you will find out how to do it.

— How to Insert Page Numbers: — If you have Word, then, in the Menu at top of screen, click on “Insert,” and then scroll to Page Numbers, and click on that. Then, when the box appears, under “Position,” select “Top of Page (Header),” and under “Alignment,” select “Right.” And then, click on “OK.” — If using another word processing program, then search on the internet for the instructions “how to insert page numbers” (and add the name of your word processing program, or Google Docs, or whatever you are using), and you will find out how to do it.

— It is hard to grade papers and write comments (especially in Canvas, but also on regular paper) when students don’t double-space and don’t put page numbers. Double-spacing is easier to read and allows instructors to insert comments between lines and more easily keep track of points. Page numbers allow instructors to refer back to other points or issues in a student paper and provide better feedback and also to keep track of where they are in grading your paper and thus get the grades recorded more quickly in Canvas so students can see their grades. Standard 12 point font helps your professor to read papers more easily, especially when grading hundreds of papers per year.

— In addition, at the university level and in the professional world, papers are double-spaced and have page numbers in top right corners, and have standard 12 point font, so students need to learn and practice this format for future success.

The rest of the Paper Instructions are below.

______________________________________________________________________________

4. MORE TIPS & REQUIREMENTS for DOING WELL:

__________________________________________________________

The paper instructions are higher up, above, under requirements for the Outline, in the section called: ” 1. Outline (and Final Paper) must include all below.”

— Final paper: The PAPER assignment is 4 pages MAX. It is fine to go over just a little (1 or 2 lines) on the 5th page. It is also fine for the paper to be 3 pages, as long as you fully answer the specific assignment. The goal is quality of analysis, and NOT quantity. The page limit is to prevent rambling. Your paragraphs must NOT be longer than 3/4 of a page, or 1 page at most. If you are going longer than that, it will be necessary to create a new paragraph. You can have more paragraphs in your paper. The assignment is a guide for the minimum number of paragraphs, but stick to the 4 pages MAX, to avoid losing points. The goal is to have all students graded on the same amount of material. Avoid listing everything you know about the American Revolution; that is NOT the assignment. Instead, answer the specific assignment and write a focused paper with a clear main argument supported by the required evidence examples and your analysis of how the evidence supports your main argument. Read your paper out loud to yourself to see if it is convincing to your audience. Pretend you are a lawyer in the courtroom and you are trying to convince the jury.

— Paper assignment instructions are on this page and also in syllabus, p. 2: — A 4-page typed analytical paper on a significant issue in American history (based on material in Weeks 7, 8, 9 10), using the assigned course readings (primary and secondary sources), quotations, and citations. The paper assignment will be due as stated above and is considered to be the final exam. NO late papers. Failure to upload the paper on time (NO emailed papers) means an F in the course. Students must submit paper on the correct Final Exam page in Canvas for this course using Turnitin INSIDE Canvas by the due date & time; failure to do any of these or ANY plagiarism will result in F/0 on the paper and an F in the course. Please see me for help or with any questions.

— Make sure to use a topic sentence for each paragraph. A topic sentence states the main point of your paragraph, so that the reader knows what your paragraph is about and what it is trying to prove. All of your topic sentences (one for each paragraph) need to work together to support the main argument of your entire paper. In your Intro. paragraph, the topic sentence of course will be the main argument sentence (thesis statement) for your entire paper, answering the assignment.

— Written analysis grading standards are summarized on p. 3 of the syllabus, under “Grading Scale” and are also listed in more detail here: In essay format, make a specific and clear main argument which answers the assignment, fully complete the assignment using specific required evidence which supports your main argument, and use college-level writing and historical analysis.

— Each paragraph needs to have at least 3 sentences, which is standard for college-level and professional work. Of course you can have more sentences (and more paragraphs), but stick to the page limit of 3 pages.

— You MUST use correct page numbers in citations from the assigned readings for your 4 terms (on syllabus from the relevant weeks and in The American Promise textbook chapters) and for your 4 document examples from Reading the American Past and/or the Handout Set(s) in Files in Canvas. (If you are using the Declaration of Independence for one of your document examples in the 2nd paragraph of the paper, then cite a page number from the Appendix in the back of The American Promise textbook.) See more information about required formatting for citations, below . . . .

______________________________________________________________________________________

5. QUOTING and CITING:

— Citations and Page Numbers from Assigned Sources are Required in Paper.

_______________________________________________________________

Accurate page numbers with citation of assigned sources will be required in the paper. See those required assigned sources in section above, where it says, “You MUST use correct page numbers in citations from the assigned readings . . . .” Do not use internet sources. Do not use websites. — Due to Covid-19 upheavals, quotations will NOT be required for this paper, although you can use short quotations if you would like to. — However, do NOT use long quotes for your examples, or you will lose points; this policy is to avoid the issue of students cutting and pasting from the web or other sources and NOT doing their own work. Most of the examples need to be in your own words (and NOT quoted material) to show your understanding of the material. In addition, ALL of the analysis needs to be in your own words. Do NOT copy or commit plagiarism from any book, article, website, or other source, or another student, or allow others to do so; doing any of those things will result in a 0/F on the paper. All students MUST do their own work.

You must cite correct page numbers for your evidence examples in your paper (for documents and terms).

EXAMPLES:

Cite like this at the END of your sentence:

NOTE: The period only goes after the citation and NOT in front of it.

That way, the reader knows that a citation goes with a sentence.

Example:

Thomas Jefferson signed the Declaration of Independence (Roark, The American Promise, p. 999).

CITATION FORMATTING:

For the Textbook:

(Roark, The American Promise, p. 176).

For the Documents book:

(Johnson, ed., Reading the American Past, p. 23).

For the Handout Set:

(in Handout Set, p. 8).
