This would be beneficial for mass printing. However, you can use MS Word or PDF. 1 -2 pages should be sufficient. Don't forget to add references Week 5 Infonographic Assignment Information Jun 29, 2019 5:51 PM Good evening students, For the infographic assignment. You should not have to purchase an upgrade. If there are concerns with converting the document. I have copy and pasted into word, and converted the format into PDF. This is an option. However, if this does not work for your; do contact the tech support help desk for assistance with converting the document. Also, don't forget to cite and have references. Hope this helps! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Dr Dowling Quizzes Jun 29, 2019 5:50 PM Good morning students, None of your assignments in this course, are community assignments . Also, you should not be saving the questions from the quizzes, nor should you be discussing them. These questions will be used for upcoming classes, and this would be an Honor Code violation. Quizzes will be completed weekly, the content is derived from the text. Be sure to review your textbook readings. I highly encourage you to not wait until the last minute to complete, for success. Dr Dowling Week 4 Paper (Helpful Information) Tips for Success Jun 29, 2019 5:49 PM Good evening students, This week you will be writing an APA Paper. Keep your 6th edition APA manual handy, while you are writing the paper. Common problem areas include headers, headings, page numbers, citation format, reference format, compound sentence use, independent and dependent clauses, format of the introduction paragraph, and presence of a conclusion paragraph. These are errors I see with baccalaureate, graduate and doctoral students. Hopefully, this information will be beneficial. Also, the link is pasted below for the Purdue OWL Sample APA paper. This is really helpful. You will not need an abstract. https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/apa_sample_paper.html Discussion Board Responses Jun 29, 2019 5:48 PM Good afternoon students, Each week, I will respond to different students.
