Instruction
I want the paper typed, double-spaced, Times New Roman, one-inch margins all around, cover page, reference page, and pages numbered as well (top right corner for page numbers). I will return your work and record a “0” for the assignment if you haven’t taken the time to do simple things like proofreading, spellchecking, and following directions given for the assignment that I have requested. I want you to use at least two sources in addition to the book using ASA style when citing.

Directly answers the question asked of you.
Makes a claim that others might dispute.
Is usually a single sentence near the beginning of your paper (most often, at the end of the first paragraph) that presents your argument to the reader.
