1. Select a video and watch it in its entirety.
2. Begin your paper by writing a Video Summary. Your summary should be around 250 words.
3. Research the issues presented in the video. You will need at least 10 bibliographic references which indicate that you have investigated the issue. Your references need to be from 2014 or newer. Use the Vol State Thigpen Library’s Psychology Research Guide to find credible psychology research sources.
4. The second part of your paper will be an Analysis of Topic. This analysis should be 1,250 words long, at a minimum. Write your personal response regarding the issues raised in the video and the research you found. You must comment on at least 5 specific issues or quotes from the video you selected to review. Support your opinions using in-text citations of the research articles you have reviewed. You may use MLA, Chicago, or APA formatting for your in-text citations. See the format section for more information about in-text citations. Be sure to accurately cite your sources. If you quote or summarize without giving credit, it is considered "plagiarism".
