Written Assignment for Unit Two

• Include your name, student number, course number, course

protection in case your materials become separated). • Begin each written
assignment by identifying the question number you are answering followed by the
actual question itself (in bold type). • Use a standard essay format for
responses to all questions (i.e. an introduction, middle paragraphs and
conclusion). • Responses must be submitted as a MS Word Document only, typed
double-spaced, using a standard font (i.e. Times New Roman) and 12 point type
size.

citation styles.
