Begin with your revised opening paragraph, and include your thesis statement and the quote from the Unit 2 Submission. Make sure you are addressing the audience that you have identified for your paper.

Write 3 body paragraphs (including at least 1 quotation, 1 summarization, and 1 paraphrase with corresponding in-text citations and references in APA format).

Incorporate multimedia (use the multimedia piece you decided on in the Unit 4 Submission assignment, use examples provided in the intellipath lessons, or get approval from your instructor).

Be sure your paper is in APA format (i.e., double-spaced, in 12-point Times New Roman font, with a running head and page numbering). The Reference page, as well as any in-text citations, must follow APA formatting requirements. Be sure to check your writing for the following writing elements: Grammar, punctuation, spelling, and proofreading.
