Topic Points of Grammar

Your first case assignment consists of three parts. Please ensure that you complete all of these to be considered for full credit. Part I: The following questions appear in a writing skills inventory located at http://writingcenter(dot)unc(dot)edu/faculty-resources/classroom-handouts/taking-inv entory/. Give some thought to these questions, and provide brief written responses to each by the end of this module. 1.What do you perceive as your greatest writing challenge overall? What do you usually have the most trouble with as a writer? 2.What do you like about your current writing process? What do you do well? 3.Which points of grammar, punctuation, style, or mechanics do you feel uncertain about? What sentence level issues trouble you most often? Part II: Visit the Trident Online Library, and identify one book and three journals in which one would be able to find published studies relevant to the health sciences. (Hint: Books can be found via ebrary). Describe the process that you undertook to locate these items. Finally, provide reference citations for each of these sources in APA format. Present these elements in written form by the end of this module. Part III: Plagiarism, whether deliberate or unintended, can be devastating to a student's academic career and even future employment. Given this, please review the information provided in the Indiana University Plagiarism Tutorial, and complete the 10-Item Quiz after doing so. At the conclusion of the quiz, you will be given an option of having a copy of your results e-mailed to your instructor. Please do so as this will serve as verification that you have completed the third part of this assignment. Length: The written component of this assignment should be 2-3 pages long (double-spaced). References: At least four references must be included from scholarly sources-one book and three peer-reviewed journal articles. Required Reading is included. Quoted materials should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is critical thinking). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others. Materials copied verbatim from external sources must be enclosed in quotation marks. In-text reference citations are required as well as a list of references at the end of the assignment. (APA format is required.) Organization: Subheadings should be used to organize your paper according to the questions. Format: APA format is required for this assignment. Grammar and Spelling: While no points are deducted for minor errors, assignments are expected to adhere to standard guidelines of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence syntax. Points may be deducted if grammar and spelling impact clarity.
