Due Date: Sunday of Week 4Consider using the  Keiser OWL . Submit your paper to the OWL by Wednesday. You may also use your local campus Writing Studio.DIRECTIONSNow that you have created a thorough outline, you should continue to expand the outline into an essay format using proper APA style. Additionally, you will need to show competency in constructing a research-based argumentative piece of writing.  To meet that goal, you will need to meet the following requirements:

• Demonstrate critical thinking and critical analysis skills, including your use of a research based argumentation
• Write between 1,000 – 1,200 words
  • Papers that do not meet at least 1,000 words are subject to a pro-rated penalty. (i.e. submitting 800 words would result in a 20% loss of grade as 20% of the paper’s word requirements were not met)
  • No abstract is needed for your paper. However, an APA formatted cover page and reference list is required.
• Effectively organize your essay. Write a clear introduction, thesis statement, multiple body paragraphs supporting the thesis statement, a paragraph that develops a counterpoint, and a clear conclusion.
• Use at least four sources.
  • Using a source means quoting, paraphrasing, and/or summarizing it, including a citation each time it is being used.
  • Reference each source you use in your reference list.
  • You should use the following sources:
    • Three peer-reviewed academic journal sources from Keiser’s e-Library
    • At least one additional credible source, which may include the e-Library, or another reputable location
    • Additional sources are optional.
    • Contact your instructor if you are unsure as to whether a source will count towards the requirements.
  • If fewer than four sources are used, 10% may be deducted from your grade for each missing source (i.e. using only two sources would result in a 20% loss of grade)
• No block quotes should be included. Use integrated quotes only.
• Use 3rd person objective point of view only. Avoid 1st and 2nd person points of view.
• Use academic language and proper grammar and mechanics. Consider using the Online Writing Lab or your local campus Writing Studio prior to submitting this paper.
