Instructions for Book Reports

Each book report is to be presented in a memorandum of at least three (3), but no more than five (5) pages.

The memorandum must be single-spaced using 12-point Arial or Times New Roman font.  Leave a space between sections and paragraphs in the same manner as these instructions.  Margins must be at least one inch on each side of the page.  If quotes are used from the book, give the page number in parenthesis at the end of the sentence (p. 1).  If using an e-book, cite the chapter where the quote originated.   Bullet points may be used, but the entire document cannot be a series of bullet points.  No additional sources (book, articles, websites, etc.) should be used.  No reference section at the end of the memorandum.

Sentences should be concise and varied in length and structure.  Word choice should be precise and accurate.  There can be no misspellings, grammatical errors, or edits.  Use correct capitalization.   You should cover each of the topics sufficiently enough that someone who has never read the book would come away with a good understanding of the answers to each of the report questions.

Papers are to be submitted in a Word document as an attachment through Turnitin on Blackboard.  The link is under the question list for each report.  No PDFs accepted.  Make sure the final draft is submitted because the system will not permit multiple submissions nor any edits in a report once submitted.  Reports will not be accepted as an email attachment.
