If you use outside sources, these MUST BE credible museum or art sources like The Getty Museum or SmartHistory. Do not use sites which share other student papers or other non-credible sources. If you do, you will receive a grade of zero points.
If you use credible outside sources, please use quotation marks and include an MLA citation on a Works Cited List at the bottom of your essay. Otherwise, you will receive a grade of zero points.
Summarize the material from the PDF lecture or the textbook in your own words instead of copying and pasting it directly into your essay.
If you use summarized material from the chapter PDF lectures, your textbook or the optional resources, then you DO NOT need to cite your sources!!
If you use material from ANY other source including Internet sources, then you must use quotation marks and include a CORRECT MLA 9 citation for the credible museum or art source in a WORKS CITED list at the bottom of your essay!! I will call these credible OUTSIDE SOURCES.
All other outside sources, like copying from a student paper you found on the Internet or student paper sharing websites are non-credible sources!
I will be using TURNITIN to assess whether you have used any credible or non-credible OUTSIDE SOURCES in your essay without using quotation marks and a citation.
