Assignment
Instructions
A scholarly research paper focused on either learning or
cognition, minimum of 12 pages in paper body length (not including the cover
page or references page), double-spaced with 1″ margins on all sides of
each page, is required for this course. APA style formatting is required. The
assignment should include a title page, abstract, body of paper, and a separate
page entitled “References” listing sources used and attached to the
end. Papers not in APA format will receive a 10% deduction from the paper score
before scoring deduction for other errors. Papers not including any source
citations will receive a score of zero. A minimum of 5 articles must be used in
the development of the paper and source credited in the paper body and reference
page. 10% times the number of articles less than 5 will be deducted from the
paper score before scoring deduction for other errors. Only academic,
peer-reviewed journal articles obtained through the APUS Online Library can be
used for the research paper.
