I require that they use five sources for the news article and require that those sources are from the psychology journals. (They also submit an APA style list of references.) I like the assignment because students encounter these kinds of reports in their daily lives and they are more likely to do this kind of writing when they graduate. The students seems to enjoy the assignment more than the traditional term paper.
If they use the primary literature and write in APA style, what makes this different than a term paper? Craig Cowden, Ph.D. Northern Virginia Community College --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
