1. Length and elements: Your response should be 5-7 pages, double spaced and typed (not
including your references page). Font should be Times New Roman; 12 pt. Margins should be no
wider than 1″. Please number your pages.
2. Number of references: Your response should include a minimum of 10 credible sources (though
you will likely have more). Appropriate sources include research and/or scholarly articles from
peer reviewed, scientific journals, and/or books (but not encyclopedias or textbooks). For each
