Important-paper is not only historically accurate but presents an interpretation of the material it covers. It has a point to make and answers the question thoroughly. As important, it makes extensive and effective use of the course readings and in-class lecture and discussion. The paper meets the required length of five pages without resorting to the various methods of “lengthening a paper.” It is written in clear and readable prose, is proof-read and mistake free, and is well organized, with an identifiable thesis, a body in which the thesis is substantiated (supported with historical material) and a conclusion which does not simply repeat the thesis. Most importantly it puts forward your ideas, thereby showing thought, and does not merely repeat what others have said. Make it your own.
