I’m working on a Writing exercise and need support.
Review the course readings related to your selected social issue, select 4-6 key quotes from the reading selections, and complete the following:
- Give the bibliographic information for the reading selection source in APA format
- Give the exact quote and page number
- Paraphrase the quote and provide an in-text citation.
- Explain why you selected the quote and how the quote relates to your selected social issue and your perspective on the issue
Organization
- Indicate your topic, thesis, and reasons
- Give 4-6 quote log “entries” where you provide the required information (see above under content)
- Review the sample quote log below.
Grammar and Mechanics
- Your paper should be written according to the standards for academic writing, with attention to the following:
- punctuation: this includes things such as proper use of commas, colons, and apostrophes.
- word-level accuracy: this includes things such as proper capitalization, spelling, word-tense, and usage.
- sentence-level accuracy: this includes things such as proper sentence boundaries, subject-verb agreement, and pronoun-antecedent agreement.
- Take time to proofread after you’ve written your essay. Think about the kinds of writing mistakes you tend to make (like using “text-speak” or sentence fragments) and watch out for those. Reading your paper aloud is a good way to catch any mistakes.
Sources and Documentation
- You are required to use three sources for this assignment. Your sources should be selected from the assigned course readings on your selected issue (language and power; freedom and security; health and wealth).
- For each source, you should include APA-style reference citations and in-text citations
Format and Length
- Your quote log should include a proper header and title.
- Your quote log should be typed, double-spaced and in 12-point font.
- Your final product should include log entries for 4-6 quotes. Each entry be about 150 words in length, for a total of 600-900 words.
- This quote log will assist you in identifying details, examples, and information from the reading selections to develop and support your assertions in your case study project.
- This quote log will also help you to clarify and articulate the connection between the quote, your selected social issue, and your perspective on the issue.
- Moreover, this quote log will help you to effectively incorporate textual evidence in your case study project.
The course Reading I selected
Reason: Stress for money not only affects the adult but also affects children’s behavior and health.
Quote:
“It isn’t just adults who suffer the consequences of stress when money is tight. Groundbreaking research reviewed in a 2011 report from the American Academy of Pediatrics finds that childhood exposure to poverty and stress has both immediate and long-term effects on development, behavior, and health.”
Paraphrase
Adults are not alone when dealing with financial stress. The American Academy of Pediatrics found truth in 2011 that poverty experienced by children can lead to long-term effects on their development, behavior, and health.
