Assignment 5 requires you to write an essay of 8 to 10 pages, double-spaced (1800 to 2200 words). Select one of the topics below. The topic must address an issue of public or government policy on one or more aspect(s) of globalization. Public policy issues are discussed in all units of the course, but particularly in Units 4 and 5. Citations & References Guidelines to help you apply important citation standards: For an essay of 1800-2200 words, you should use at least five credible sources outside of the course materials to gather research material for your chosen topic. Do not use Wikipedia as a research source or a source of definitions; since any page can be edited by any user, it is NOT a credible source of information for university-level research. Citations give credit to the original author and help the reader find the original source. Each idea that is not your own, whether quoted, paraphrased, or otherwise used to substantiate your analysis, should be accompanied by an in-text citation, with a complete reference in a references page. This applies to written material, charts, graphs, and other kinds of data. Back up your statements with proper citation references. You can build a stronger argument through referencing. Sources need to be specifically cited in the text with complete references included in a list at the end of the paper. You may use either MLA or APAStyle for citing references. The Athabasca University Write Site provides help with essay writing. It is also a good source of information regarding the proper use of APA and MLA referencing styles, and it provides an overview on avoiding plagiarism through the use of proper documentation. See the section entitled “Documentation & Plagiarism.” Please be aware of Athabasca University’s Student Academic Misconduct Policy. Essay Topics 1. Choose any country of interest.
