8 pgs double-space, Times New Roman 12-point font, and 1-inch margins.
Develop the answer in detail, unpacking the concepts in a nuanced manner, including the theories the authors
are arguing against (when applicable), and the evidence or examples used by the authors to substantiate the
claims.
Cite readings (both in the form of direct quotes and paraphrasing). Use parenthetical citations pointing to
specific pages. When discussing authors, aim for at least every-other paragraph to have a citation. Citing
lectures is not an acceptable replacement for citing the readings. You can use lecture notes only to guide you
through the readings and in outlining the structure of your essays.
