Please follow this Guideline and Rubric for your 10-page research
paper. Dr. Sam Ngovo
1. Your paper should have a clear introduction by stating the THESIS/THEME of your
research in the first paragraph.
2. Also state in the first paragraph the significant of your study. What NEW INFORMATION
your research reveals in relation to what other writers have said about the topic or
similar topic?
3. AVOID THE USE OF THE PERSONAL PRONOUN “I” IN THE PAPER. For example “I plan to
write about…” Simply say, “This paper is about or this paper examines or explores…”
4. The body of the paper should read smoothly and clearly. Try to use short sentences and
not long sentences that will confuse the idea you want to convey or put forward. Proof
read your paper for wrong sentences and spellings.
5. Write one-sided and writings be separated into paragraphs.
6. Your conclusion should be the last paragraph and should highlights or clearly
states/provide summary of the main points or themes your paper examined, including
new information or idea your research revealed. Remember that the paper is a research
paper.
7. You MUST use FOOTNOTES citations, NOT APA or MLA citations.
8. Footnote citation format: There should be NO URL or www. Wikipedia.com, www.
Google.com, http://www.sources.com.

war finally led to the British removing all of their troops from the soil of the United

victory and sovereignty of the United States.2
9. The last page of the paper should have the list of books, articles and any sources you
used to write the paper.
