Handouts may be given to me one week in advance and I will have copies made for the class. Pages of the handout are to be stapled together before class begins. At the end of each presentation, the other students will each ask the presenter at least 1 question. On the day of your presentation, a written form of your work is to be submitted for grading. Format Papers must be typed, double spaced with 1 inch margins all around.
All pages are to be numbered and stapled together.
Music examples must be labeled and pasted directly into the text. Footnotes, or endnotes, and bibliography must follow the Chicago Manual of Style or Kate Turabian, A Manual for Writers. Grades will be subtracted for incorrect formats and documentation. Grading Grades will be subtracted for incorrect spelling, grammar, and unconvincing organization of ideas. If you need assistance with your writing Dr. Platt is available to review outlines and to read drafts.
