Teacher Comments for paper

• All paragraphs have to be at least 4 well-developed sentences

• Please remember when describing information from your research, the information must be presented in the past tense because the work was in the past (i.e., Hitt (2014) stated). Please remember authors initials are never used in the text. . . only in the reference page.

• Please remember the APA mechanics requirement where pronouns must be excluded for clarity and not to end or begin sentences with the word "it, but, or because" or prepositions, such as "for or to." Also, contractions are not appropriate in scholarly writing. Exclude: we, you, their, this, them, these, they, those

• Also, be careful on how you end sentences, not in verbs, prepositions, pronouns, or conjunctions... nouns are best for clarity.
