You MUST cover the following points:

Identify the issue and how you are covering it (for it, against it, it exists, it does not exist, etc.)
Give background information with supporting or contrary evidence and facts. (Cite your references!!) State that everyone agrees if there is no evidence in opposition of your position – don’t just ignore this point!
Suggest possible follow-ups, courses of action, possible solutions, or research.

You MUST follow these guidelines:

Write a paper that covers your topic thoroughly and well. This should be a very well written paper; if it is, I am not so concerned about how long it is. However, papers less than five (written – not including Reference Page, Title Page, etc.) pages probably will not be thorough enough. Be sure your paper covers all the points indicated above in the required section.
Include a title page and references. Any diagrams, graphs, tables, or any other relevant information you would like to add can be included but are not considered written material and should be explained within the paper.
Double space your paper and use 1-inch margins. Make sure the text is 12-point Times New Roman font.
Use APA format. Use it correctly. Refer to The Little Seagull Handbook or another appropriate reference for help with this. If you are using an automatic citation program/software, check it before using the reference as it is written! They do not always do it right! Use this for the entire paper – both in text and on your reference page. If you don’t have this Handbook, there are other sources you can use; an especially good one is Purdue OWL: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01″¦
Use at least five scholarly references. In many cases, only as a last resort should you use a web page as a reference. If you do use one, make sure it is NOT Wikipedia, ehow.com, about.com, or similar internet sources. DO use the library website to access databases and catalogs to search for scholarly articles. Ask me if you are not sure if you should use a
Proofread! Read your paper out loud when you are done to make sure it makes sense. Use proper punctuation and do not use abbreviations or have any spelling errors. Feel free to use the free version of Grammarly.com. Set up a time to meet with me to go over your final rough draft.
Do NOT plagiarize. Cite your work (see #4). Do NOT use anyone else’s paper/work as your own.

If there is anything you do not understand or if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask me. I want you to do well and to write a good paper. Writing well is important for professionals who work with juveniles; what you write can impact a child’s entire life! Now is the time to ask questions so when you get out into the field, you will know how to write like a professional!
