Apply the principles of good writing to your summaries as well as your essays.
Summaries will have depth consisting of 2 to 3 pages (typed, double-spaced, using 12-point Times New Roman font with standard APA margins) based on assignment. This means the discussion you present is more than one and a half pages and not over 3 pages in length. Do not use more than 2 quotes in your draft. This does not include the cover page and references. An example summary with feedback is provided in the Course Content Folder for Week One. You will submit your summaries using email in Blackboard. See Syllabus for due dates and assignment criteria.
