MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH & LANGUAGE ARTS SPIRNG 2014 Instructor: (Mr.) Johnnie A. Fields, M.L.S., M.A. “NEGRO SPIRTUALS” RESEARCH PAPER Due: Monday, March 10, 2014 February 28, 2014 @ Start of Class – No Late Papers, please!!! Formatting and Paper Content Issues Part II: YOUR PAPER MUST BE UPLOADED TO SAFE/ASSIGNMENT BLACKBOARD (consult youtube for instructions) Note: The instruction sheet for the “content” of the paper was disseminated in class on Monday, February 24, 2014. Note: You will need to refer to a college-level grammar bible to assist you in your parenthetical notations and “Works Cited” page placements. 1) Papers are to be typed on a word processor and handed to the instructor. No emailed papers without prior approval from instructor, please. 2) The required paper size is 8.5 x 11 inches. The acceptable font sizes are Times New Roman, 12 point or Calibri, 11 point. The paper color should be white. The ink color should be black. 3) The entire research paper should be double-spaced without additional line spacing between paragraphs or between the heading and the body of your paper, please. 4) Page 1 ONLY should have a heading consisting of the student’s name, the instructor’s name, the course and the section number/letters (HUM202. ____ENGL 102.___), the date due, and the assignment – The Negro Spirituals Paper. The heading must be in the upper left corner. Please double-space EVERYTHING, including the upper left-hand corner heading. NO COVER SHEETS, PLASTIC ENCLOSURES, PLEASE. 5) Each page, including the first page, should have the student’s name and the page number in the upper right hand corner area, i.e. a last name and a DIGIT. ` 6) The title of your essay, either direct or indirect, should be centered at the top of the front page under your heading information. The title must be written correctly, without underlining, without a larger font, without bolding, without quotation marks, or italicizing (unless you employ a direct title in connection with your own), and with the correct capitalization. 7) Please eliminate any “widows” or “orphans” which might appear in your work. 8) The research paper must be at least five full pages long without “over quoting” from the three web documents which were handed out last Monday. (Please substitute the web site “Negrospirituals.com” for “Sweet Chariot: The Story of the Spirituals.” The latter is now non-existent from the University of Denver.) As you make your points throughout the paper, simply use spirituals song lyrics accordingly. Do not reprint the full lyrics from any one song title you reference in your paper. No more than four lines of lyrics per song, please.. (Use the Faigin web document for a visual guide as to how you would block lines of lyric.) Also, your grammar bible is your go-to reference source. Quoted song lyrics which occupy three or less than three lines which you use in your running paper narrative appear surrounded by quotation marks and slashes for “end of song lyric line breaks.” Four or more lines should be “blocked.” Please refer to your grammar bible: print or on-line. 9) Attach this instruction sheet to your paper for Monday next. Check off each of the “action items” here; that way, the instructor does not penalize your paper for noncompliance/not following directions. NOTE: Proofread, proofread, and proofread your work very thoroughly as you are submitting your paper for a grade
