LECTURE 2
Introduction
Learning to communicate appropriately and effectively in a variety of settings and in a variety of formats is an important skill in both academic and professional environments. In an online learning environment, learning to communicate effectively through writing is particularly important because it is, by far, how the majority of communication occurs. Review the learning objectives for this module within the course syllabus and use the following lecture, which is about various forms of written communication used in the online graduate setting, to accomplish them.
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing the ideas of others is a requirement in academic writing and graduate study. Paraphrasing is using your own words to restate ideas or information from a source material. Paraphrasing will help you grasp the full meaning of the source material and allow you to appropriately reference the source material to support your own ideas and academic writing. Paraphrased material is usually shorter and more concise than the original information. The following are some common guidelines taken from the Purdue Online Writing Lab (2012), which may assist you with learning to paraphrase information gathered from reading materials for use in completing your coursework.
Reread the original passage until you understand its full meaning.
Set the original passage aside and, on a note card, write what you think the passage means in your own words (paraphrase).
Jot down a few words below your paraphrase to remind you later of how you plan to use the information. At the top of the note card, write a key word or phrase to indicate the subject of your paraphrase.
Compare your paraphrase with the original to make sure that your version accurately expresses all the essential information.
Use quotation marks to identify any unique term or phrase you copied exactly from the original source.
Record the source (including the page) on your note card so that you can cite it easily if you decide to incorporate the material into a paper or discussion question response.
The following is an example of paraphrasing (Purdue OWL, 2012), which i.

Research Paper Guidelines When preparing and writing the .docxeleanorg1
Research Paper Guidelines
When preparing and writing the research papers, students must be attentive to the following basic
requirements. It is imperative that students read and follow these guidelines to ensure a good grade.
1) A research paper involves both the gathering of information and developing a student’s own
interpretation of that information. The student must stay focused on his or her chosen topic and
rely upon his or her sources for information about that topic. While a student’s own opinions about
a topic are an important part of any research process, the student must be able to support his or
her conclusions by direct reference to sources.
2) The writing must be clear and logical and as free of spelling and grammatical errors as possible.
A student should never submit a paper without rereading and proofing it. It may even be
necessary to get someone to assist in this process by having him or her read the paper and
check for these mistakes. The student should not fail to run spell-check on his or her writing.
Please remember that easily correctable spelling and grammatical mistakes left uncorrected will
result in significant loss of points.
3) This paper requires MLA formatting that includes:
a. 12-point font
b. double-spaced sentences
c. title and personal identification
d. a separate works cited page properly formatted
e. specific bibliographical form for print and electronic sources in your works cited
f. a specific form for parenthetical (in-text) citations of the sources listed in your works cited
The student will be graded on how well his or her style conforms to the above basic requirements
in MLA.
4) The works cited must include no less than four sources. Those sources must be relevant to the
topic and meet minimum academic qualifications. The acceptable types of sources include the
following:
a. class text
b. print or electronic book
c. electronic, peer-reviewed journal article
d. website with a .edu address
5) Certain sources do not qualify for works cited. You will be penalized if you use them. These are:
a. Wikipedia
b. standard dictionary or encyclopedia (web or paper)
c. any website not .edu
The student should remember that any source listed in your works cited that does not meet the
above criteria will not count towards the minimum number of required sources.
6) For every source listed in the works cited, a student must have at least one corresponding
parenthetical (in-text) reference. This will demonstrate how a student has used the source.
The student should remember that any source not accompanied by at least one parenthetical
reference (and any parenthetical reference not associated with a source in your works cited) will
not count towards the minimum number of required sources.
While research is vital, so is the proper accounting for that research. All students must use MLA
guidelines for the papers. For a sample of a correct.

Critical ThinkingAs you should have noted throughout your masterbridie36viles
Critical Thinking
As you should have noted throughout your master's program, psychological knowledge stems mainly from research. Knowledge of the world, however, in addition to coming from direct experience and observation, comes from many sources including journals, textbooks, experts, and various media resources (television, newspapers, and the Internet). An important question regarding these resources is, "Are they all credible?" How do you distinguish fact from fiction in evaluating research information, regardless of its source? This Discussion addresses the importance of critical thinking in evaluating information obtained through various sources including psychological research. Critical thinking is an invaluable skill in life as well as for completing your Capstone Project.
To prepare:
Review Chapter 1 of the course text,
Asking the Right Questions: A Guide to Critical Thinking

Assignment 3 Gender IdentityWe are socialized at every stage inbridie36viles
Assignment 3: Gender Identity
We are socialized at every stage in life to conform to our gender identity. Societal reinforcement of tendencies of gender identity is relentless. For example, in hospitals, little girls are wrapped in pink and little boys in blue. This difference in colors influences how we learn and how we internalize our role in our society.
Girls tend to grow up to play feminine roles and boys tend to grow up to play masculine roles. This differentiation of gender identity has implications in social stratification. The videos given below will provide you with a better understanding of the differentiation of sexual identity from an earlier generation.
Search for and watch an episode of at least one of the following shows. You may find these videos using a variety of search methods including visiting your local library, using Netflix or your local video store, or searching on YouTube. If you have difficulty locating an episode of one of the following shows, contact your instructor for assistance in finding an alternative.

As you watch the video, ask yourself the following questions:
To what extent have things changed and to what extent have they remained the same in regards to gender roles, expectations, division, and identity from the time this show was originally popular and today?
How conscious and sensitive are the characters regarding gender prejudice, power inequality, and subordination?
Did they take inequality of the sexes for granted?
Based on your readings and understanding that you have gathered after watching the above-noted video, write a short biographical description of your life if you were to wake up tomorrow morning in the time period of the video you watched and find you have a different gender identity. Write a description of how you lived your life a day after your hypothetical change in gender as you answer the following questions:
Discuss how you would react on finding out that your sex is opposite. Would you feel a sense of relief, indifference, or elation? Why?
Discuss three ways your attitude towards the opposite sex was enlightened or would change as a result of what you learned from this project. If you would not change your attitude, why?
Write down the ideas and attitudes you have taken for granted a member of your actual gender. Consider how your roles at home and in the office would change if you were a member of the opposite gender.
Relate the ideas of sexism and racism to the videos. How do you think sexism and racism have changed since the 1950s?

critical thinking is defined as a purposeful self regulatory judgmenbridie36viles
critical thinking is defined as a purposeful self regulatory judgment by( facione 1990) and as purposeful, goal directed thinking by (Halpern 1989) just to mention a few. In the field of nursing critical thinking is paramount, since at any given moment nurses are faced with complex situations that requires accurate judgment calls. Evidence based practice is defined as a continuous interactive process involving the precise, careful, thorough and well thought-out consideration of the best available evidence to provide care.” As is evident from these pragmatic definitions, the focus is primarily on the best ways to find and apply research evidence by (The Canadian Nurses Association). Critical thinking and evidence based practice goes hand in hand to promote better patient outcome and the ability to treat patients and their families on an individual basis (Youngblut & Brooten, 2001}. Clinicians chose the field to care for others and to do so effectively and appropriately they must stay up to date with current research and information and by furthering their education.

Critical thinking and evidence-based practice (EBP) drives nursing pbridie36viles
Critical thinking and evidence-based practice (EBP) drives nursing practice today. Critical thinking can be defined as incorporating data analysis, synthesis and interpretation of data to determine patient interventions. (Green, 2018) Evidence-based practice is defined as “the integration of clinical expertise, the most up-to-date research, and patient’s preference to care.” (Green, 2018) The nursing process to delivering patient care is dynamic. When a nurse incorporates the nursing process of assessment, diagnosis, planning of outcomes, implementation and evaluation in the setting of EBP patient care is substantiated. It allows the nurse to implement care and evaluate the outcome. It further permits for care to be changed if outcomes aren’t as desired. Critical thinking and critical evaluation are interchangeable. It enables the nurse to gather data and process that data to influence better patient care giving rise to better patient outcomes. Patient outcomes have improved when this process has been implemented. Foley catheter utilization driven by EBP and how it’s decreased catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) is one great example of its success. Patients no longer have a Foley catheter placed without a medically necessary reason. Risks and benefits have been tested, evaluated and substantiated to Foley catheter usage. This has greatly improved (decreased) CAUTI incidence and decreased negative patient outcomes. (Green, 2018) “EBP is aimed at hardwiring current knowledge into common care decisions to improve care processes and patient outcomes” (Stevens, 2013) This is an outstanding improvement to delivering patient care. As nurses we want to facilitate health and well being without causing harm. Exercising critical thinking and EBP when rendering care will help achieve that goal.

The warrant was a search warrant issued by a magistrate at the Lawrence District Court. His name is Mark McCale, a retired police officer for the state police department in Lawrence. The warrant indicated that "the first floor of Dan's house will be searched for a gun used in connection with a robbery and some jewelry, which was stolen." While looking in Dan's house, Officer Leila smelled what she thought to be gun powder emanating from the second floor. Officer Leila immediately walked upstairs and found a gun at the tops of the stairs. She went to confiscate the gun and while doing so noticed a note attached to the gun with an address on it. Later that afternoon police officers went to the address of the house listed on the note of the gun. A bunch of jewelry was found at this address and collected by the police officers. The address was a known address for stolen jewelry to be pawned. While at Dan's house, Dan told Officer Leila that, "I do not know what you are here for, because I did not rob the Terri Grubb's jewelry store." Officer Leila asked Dan to go to the police station and Dan agreed. As they walked into the police station, Magistrate McCale yelled, "is that the person who robbed Terri Grubb's jewelry store?!"

Criminal sentencing embraces a number of philosophies and seeks to sbridie36viles
Criminal sentencing embraces a number of philosophies and seeks to satisfy sometimes conflicting goals: retribution, incapacitation, deterrence, rehabilitation, and restoration. The means to accomplish those tasks have traditionally been comprised of fines, probation, imprisonment, and death. To adapt to the financial, social, and international pressures, the criminal justice system has experimented with mandatory, indeterminate, and structured sentencing. However, each defendant-based alternative must be viewed with in the light of its impact on the victims and society at-large.
Beginning with the material conveyed in the assigned reading and presentation, select two scholarly articles from the university criminal justice databases, and integrate those resources to discuss the practical implications of alternative and innovative sentencing options. Finally, integrate within your discussion the impact of a Judeo-Christian viewpoint on the viability of such new sentencing options. 400 WORDS OR MORE Three additional sources beyond the course material (i.e. textbook, readings, and presentations) are required for the thread.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Assignment 3 Direct ManipulationDue Week 8 and worth 80 points
1. Assignment 3: Direct Manipulation
Due Week 8 and worth 80 points
Early computer systems relied on command line interfaces to
perform all actions. Today, the majority of systems use direct
manipulation rather than a command line interface. The goal of
designing a direct manipulation interface is to make use of the
system intuitive to the end user. One industry that has been
extremely successful designing intuitive direct manipulation
inputs is the video game industry. Most game players are able to
learn controls as they play a game and then apply the same
controls to similar games. Rarely do they need to read a user
manual.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1. Describe the three (3) principles of direct
manipulation and give examples as to how they are used in
video game controls.
2. Analyze video game-type interfaces and discuss three
(3) reasons why video game-type interfaces would not be
effective for real-world applications.
3. Describe at least three (3) advantages of direct
manipulation versus command line interfaces.
4. Evaluate direct manipulation and describe three (3)
problems with it.
5. Use at least three (3) quality resources in this
assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not
qualify as quality resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman
font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and
references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check
with your professor for any additional instructions.
• Include a cover page containing the title of the
2. assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the
course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page
are not included in the required assignment page length.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with thi s
assignment are:
• Describe direct manipulation and virtual
environments.
• Use technology and information resources to research
issues in human-computer interaction.
• Write clearly and concisely about HCI topics using
proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.
Word Study Instructions
Philippians 2:1 (NA28)
Εἴ τις οὖν παράκλησις ἐν Χριστῷ, εἴ τι παραμύθιον ἀγάπης, εἴ
τις κοινωνία πνεύματος, εἴ τις σπλάγχνα καὶ οἰκτιρμοί,
Each student will complete a word study on a significant word
in their selected passage and write a 400-500-word exegetical
essay describing their findings and conclusions. The word study
will focus on correct method, sound conclusions, and relevant
sources for consultation. The essay should be in 12 point, Times
New Roman font. Format per the Turabian guidelines.
Resources for Turabian formatting may be found in the Online
Writing Center. Your paper should follow the footnote method
of citation.
Follow the guidance below to construct your essay:
1. Select an approved word from your passage for your word
study.
2. Work through the Word Study Procedure described on the
following pages of this document. Create your own lexical entry
based on observing the denotations and connotations of your
word in various contexts. You won’t need to turn this in, but it
3. will be useful as a template for the content of your essay.
3. Show that you have investigated the variety of ways and
contexts in which your word is used. Describe the various
contexts in which your word is used, and then explain what it
means in those contexts. Think of this as a description of the
main categories proposed in a lexicon entry that you are
writing, but please write in paragraph form (unlike lexicon
entries).
4. Describe what your word means in the context of your
passage. Then consult a few English translations and state
which translations best capture the meaning of the word in the
context of the passage. Perhaps you will need to propose a new
translation.
5. Cite Scripture using parenthetical citation – like this (2 Cor
2:14). You don’t need to cite secondary sources in this exercise,
but simply refer to them as needed. For example, “The editors
of BDAG proposed a meaning of the verb that does not really
seem to exist when the references are examined.”
[See below]
Word Study Procedure
Select a significant word
Some words involve a narrower range of meaning than others,
and not every word is equally important for the meaning of a
clause, sentence, passage, etc.
For this assignment, you will select one of the pre-approved
words from your passage.
Briefly consult a Lexicon such as Strong’s, Friberg, Thayer, or
BDAG:
Note the general options available for the word in question. You
want to get a general sense of how lexicon editors think your
word is used. Keep in mind that these options are not the
authoritative categories; they are the observations of the lexicon
editors, which may be right or wrong. For the sake of getting
4. into the right mindset, it would be good to assume that all of
these lexicons have involved insufficient or problematic
consideration of the evidence, which forces you to take
everything with a grain of salt and formulate conclusions based
on your own examination of that same evidence.
You can access Strong’s lexical entries in the MyWSB app. You
will need to search based on the English word in the interlinear
or the Strong’s code.
You can also use biblearc.com, which gives you access to the
SBL Greek New Testament. You can easily navigate to your
selected passage, find the Greek word you are studying, and
click open a menu that guides you to Strong’s, Thayer’s lexical
entry for the word, the parsing, and further search capabilities.
You can also access Thayer, A Greek-English Lexicon of the
New Testament, online here.
You can access an abridged version of the BDAG, The Concise
Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, in the
“Electronic Resources” folder of the “Course Content” area in
Blackboard.
a. Read some of the Scripture references listed in the various
headings the lexicon entry for this word to get a sense of the
categories that the editors have proposed. You want to get a
quick “lay of the land” at this point without getting bogged
down in the details.
Find references of your word in the breadth of Greek literature
from the ancient world [read this section, but skip this step in
the assignment]:
Consult Liddell and Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, to see a
fuller range of how your word was used in Greek literature. You
can access the lexicon here.
This step is not needed for this assignment.
Find references of your word in the Septuagint (LXX):
5. b. If you are using software to do this, such as biblearc.com,
Logos, MyWSB, or Accordance, you will search on all
occurrences of the lemma (another term for the lexical form of
the word). Note that biblearc.com allows you to search the
Greek text of the LXX just by switching from SBL to LXX in
the search options.
c. If you do not have this software, you will need to use the
following reference work in the Jerry Falwell Library: A
Concordance to the Septuagint and the other Greek versions of
the Old Testament (including the Apocryphal books). The
author/editors are Hatch and Redpath. Its location in the library
is BS1122 .H3 1998. Here is a full text version of the e-book on
Google Play.
d. As you read each use of your word, try to note the contextual
features associated with your word. In what contexts does your
word occur, and what does it signify in those contexts? What
are the nuances, connotations, and subtle shades of meaning that
might be apparent in one use of your word but not another?
Find references of your word in the New Testament:
e. Using a tool such as biblearc.com, Logos, or MyWSB,
examine all the occurrences of your word in the NT. Your goal
is to get a sense of how the word is used and what other
contextual features are present when your word is used. Try to
create your own lexicon entry for your word based on this step
and step #4 above.
f. If you download the Logos app, you will be able to search for
your word in the following manner:
i. Add the free SBLGNT (Society of Biblical Literature Greek
New Testament) to your library.
ii. Find your word and then click on it. Select the form of your
word that has “Lemma” written next to it, then choose “Search
this version.” That should pull up all occurrences of your word
in the New Testament.
Consult the BDAG Lexicon or the Abridged BDAG Lexicon if
you cannot access the full version:
6. g. You can access an abridged version of the BDAG, The
Concise Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, in the
“Electronic Resources” folder of the “Course Content” area in
Blackboard. This is sufficient for this assignment unless you
already have access to the full BDAG elsewhere.
h. Here is the info for the full version of the printed copy in the
library: A Greek-English lexicon of the New Testament and
other early Christian literature. Danker, Frederick W. Library
call number PA881 .B38 2000.
i. Compare the lexicon entry with the categories proposed in
Strong’s and Thayer. Also compare the categories to your notes
about how the word is used and the contextual features
associated with the word. See whether BDAG editors classify
your word differently than you do.
Consult an Exegetical Dictionary
Consult NIDNTTE:
You can access this in the “Electronic Resources” folder of the
“Course Content” area in Blackboard.
New International dictionary of New Testament Theology and
Exegesis. Edited by Brown. Second Edition edited by Silva.
Library call number is BS2312 .N48 2014.
This and the source below will be more extensive than a lexicon
such as BDAG. Therefore, you should note the categories
proposed by the editors, but also note their descriptions of the
contextual features associated with each use of the word.
Baltz and Schneider Exegetical Dictionary:
This is a similar resource to the above.
Exegetical Dictionary of the New Testament. Horst Balz and
Gerhard Schneider. Library call number BS2312 .E913 1990.
j. Note the contextual features associated with each use of the
word, but also the development of the word’s use through time
(diachronic analysis). Also note how the word is used in Jewish
and Christian literature in comparison with how it is used in
classical literature.
Formulate conclusions:
k. Describe the various contextual features associate with your
7. word, and how different contexts lead to different uses of your
word (or different meanings of your word).
l. Compare the context of your selected passage with the various
contexts that you came across in your research. The context
should lead you to a conclusion about how the author uses the
Greek word.
m. Propose a translation of your word and then describe what
your word means in the context of the passage.
Requirements for the Word Study assignment:
n. Word count: 400-500 words in 12-point Times New Roman
font.
o. Show that you have investigated the variety of ways and
contexts in which your word is used. Describe the various
contexts in which your word is used, and then explain what it
means in those contexts. Think of this as a description of the
main categories proposed in a lexicon entry that you are
writing, but please write in paragraph form (unlike lexicon
entries).
p. Describe what your word means in the context of your
passage. Then consult a few English translations and state
which translation best captures the meaning of the word in the
context of the passage. Perhaps you will need to propose a new
translation.
q. Cite Scripture using parenthetical citation – like this (2 Cor
2:14). You don’t need to cite secondary sources in this exer cise,
but simply refer to them as needed. For example, “The editors
of BDAG proposed a meaning of the verb that does not really
seem to exist when the references are examined.”

13. comprehensive “Chicago” style.
Turabian is named for Kate L. Turabian, the author of A Manual
for Writers of Research Papers,
Thesis, and Dissertations: Chicago Style for Students &
Researchers, which is currently in its
9th printed edition.1 This sample paper will strive to provide
students with all the foundational
elements of a Turabian paper using the Notes-Bibliography
format for students majoring in
History, (some) Government, and Divinity programs of study.
All class assignments will follow
the Notes-Bibliography format except book reviews, which use
the Author-Date format (see
the Author-Date section of the OWC’s Turabian Quick Guide
for resources on that format).
Many incoming students have opted not to purchase the
Turabian manual; this can have
significant negative effects on those students’ ability to learn
and master Turabian format.
Fortunately, Liberty University subscribes to the Chicago
Manual of Style (CMOS) database in
its Online Library for those students who do not have a current
Turabian manual readily
available to them. Since the Turabian manual is the official
14. resource commonly used in
academia, the Online Writing Center (OWC) strongly
encourages students to buy the current
Turabian manual (about $10 for hard copy or electronic
version). This sample paper, however,
includes references to the correlating CMOS section(s),
delineated by red hyperlinked text to
denote the relevant CMOS section, in an effort to ensure all
Liberty University students have the
necessary resources to excel academically. It is not proper to
include hyperlinks or colored
lettering in academic class papers; those are merely included
here for ease-of-access purposes.

15. This paper will focus primarily on the stylistic elements
discussed in Chapters 16 and 17
of the Turabian manual2 —with some minor revisions.3
Students will need to incorporate proper
grammatical elements to their papers as well, but those will not
be addressed in detail herein.
It is important to delineate that undergraduate students will not
use headings,
subheadings, or a contents page in most of their class papers.
Graduate and doctoral students
are recommended to include these elements for any paper with
at least ten pages in the body,
and required to do so in all papers with twenty or more pages in
the body. Those elements are
all included and illustrated throughout this sample paper for
organization and ease-of-access
purposes, but students should adhere to the parameters in their
specific class assignment to
determine whether or not they should include subheadings (and
a contents page, when
appropriate) in that class paper and use the appropriate template
provided on the OWC’s
Turabian Quick Guide page.
Many students’ papers will require an introductory section that
16. summarizes or previews
the argument of the whole paper, though this is not universally
required for all papers.4 It should
be set apart as a separate First-Level Subheading (addressed
below). Leave one double-spaced
line beneath the word Introduction and the text that follows, as
shown above.5 Turabian suggests
that “most introductions run about 10 percent of the whole.”6
She also suggests that conclusions
are typically shorter than introductions.
2 Turabian, A Manual for Writers, 149-235.
3 For example, footnote numbers in standard Turabian are not
superscripted and are followed by a period
(pages 149-50, 162, and 406 of the Turabian manual), but
Liberty University programs require superscripted
numbers with no periods, as depicted throughout this paper.

Ibid.
The abbreviation ibid. is used in most cases to refer to “the
same” source cited
immediately before on the same page7—in this case, footnotes
#5 and #6 on the prior page. One
of the changes in the 9th edition of the Turabian manual was to
discourage the use of the term
ibid. However, all schools and departments within Liberty
University have universally decided to
continue to require and encourage its use at this time, as it is a
long-used historical term that will
occur in many scholarly resources printed prior to 2018,
including most seminal works. As such,
students are instructed to disregard Turabian’s 2018 position on
the use of ibid. for all Liberty
University coursework.
The term ibid. itself is a Latin abbreviation (which is why it is
italicized in the text of a
sentence), so do include the period. Capitalize it when it begins
18. the footnote, since it depicts the
beginning of a sentence, but do not italicize the term in notes.8
If the page numbers for that
footnote and the one preceding it differ, use Ibid. followed by a
comma and the correct page
number(s), as shown in footnotes #5 and #6 on the previous
page. If the page number is the same
for both the current footnote and the one that precedes it,
simply use the word Ibid. for that
second footnote, as shown in footnote #8 below.
Liberty University’s History Department allows students to
carry forward the use of
ibid. onto subsequent pages as long as there are no other
sources cited between them. For
all other students, however, each new page of a student’s paper
restarts the requirements, so the
first footnoted citation to a source on each page would include
the author’s name and a shortened
title (if previously cited), then students can resume using ibid.
for subsequent consecutive
7 Turabian, A Manual for Writers, 166-67.
8 Ibid.
19. 4
citations on that page, as shown in footnotes #8 above and #12
below. Standard Turabian format
allows two forms of shortened notes,9 but Liberty University
programs of study require the
author-title version that includes both the author’s name and a
shortened version of the source’s
title. Footnote #11 below (and the first footnote on each new
page referring to the Turabian
manual) depicts a shortened note—where the author’s name is
given, along with a few words of
the title. Always include the page number, whether using a full
footnote or a shortened note.
Basic Formatting
Overview
Turabian generally offers writers great flexibility in the choices
they make regarding
many stylistic elements.10 However, Liberty University’s
schools and departments have adopted
specific requirements as detailed herein. General formatting
elements11 required include:
20. • One-inch margins on all four sides of the paper.
• Liberty University requires Times New Roman size 12-pt. font
for all content in the
paper itself, except Times New Roman 10-pt. font for all
footnote content.
• Double-spacing throughout the body of the paper, except in
the footnotes, block quotes,
table titles, and figure captions. Lists in appendices should be
single-spaced, too.12
• Quotations should be blocked if the citation is five or more
lines.
9 Turabian, A Manual for Writers, 164-66.
10 For example, Turabian does not specify a font size or style,
although all programs of study at Liberty
University using Turabian require Times New Romans, 12-point
font. Many other elements are also left by Turabian
up to individual writers; the OWC has incorporated its own
educated judgment for those in this sample paper, but
students have freedom to stray from those, where permitted in
the Turabian manual.

Title Page
The Turabian manual provides two different examples and
details for the title page
format options.13 Liberty University has adopted the more
formal one, as shown in this sample
paper and in the templates provided to students.
Page Numbering
The title page should not include any page number,14 although
it is considered the first
page of any paper. The front matter (anything between the title
page and the first page of the
body of the paper) should be numbered with lowercase Roman
numerals centered in the footer,
beginning with ii, to correspond with the fact that it begins on
page two.15 The paper’s body,
bibliography, and appendices display Arabic numerals (i.e., 1,
2, 3) placed flush-right in the
22. header, beginning with page 1 on the first page of the body of
the paper.16 Liberty University
now offers students templates that are already formatted with
pagination, margin, font, etc.
Table of Contents
Although this page/section is commonly referred to as the “table
of contents,” only the
word “Contents” should appear at the top, centered, without the
quotation marks.17 Students may
not need a table of contents, but one was included in this sample
paper as a visual aid, and
because it is lengthy enough to include subheadings. Liberty
University assignments will specify
if students are required to include subheadings and/or a contents
page. Generally, subheadings

and a contents page are required for assignments with twenty
pages or more of content, and both
are encouraged for assignments of ten to nineteen pages of
content.
The table of contents can span more than one page when
necessary, as it does in this
sample paper. Double-space between each item but single-space
the individual items themselves.
Add an extra line between each of the major sections (including
the front and back matter). It is
important to note that a table of contents does not list the pages
that precede it; only those pages
that follow it. Be sure that the first letter of each word is
capitalized (other than articles and
prepositions within the phrase).
“Leaders” —the dots between the words on the left margin and
their corresponding page
24. numbers at the right margin in a table of contents—are
acceptable. Only include the first page
each element begins on; not the full page-span.18 MS Word will
automatically populate this.
Number all pages of this element with Roman numerals. If the
table of contents is more
than one page, do not repeat the title. Leave two blank lines
between the title and the first listed
item.19 Single-space individual items listed but add a blank line
after each item. Between the lists
for the front and back matter and the chapters, or between parts
or volumes (if any), leave two
blank lines. This video tutorial shows how to format
subheadings and convert those into a
Contents page for larger projects.
Thesis Statements
Section A.2.1.4 of the Turabian manual discusses the placement
and labeling of an
abstract or thesis statement. Specifically, it acknowledges that
“most departments or universities

19 Ibid.
25. https://watch.liberty.edu/media/t/0_uf2oezog
https://watch.liberty.edu/media/t/0_uf2oezog
7
have specific models … that you should follow exactly for
content, word count, format,
placement, and pagination.”20 This paper does not include a
separate sample thesis statement
page; some classes will require such. Do not confuse a purpose
statement with a thesis statement,
however. A purpose statement states the reason why the paper is
written. For all practical
purposes, the purpose statement introduces the thesis statement.
An example of a purpose
statement is, “The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that
when one recognizes God’s
freedom, he/she can find biblical inerrancy defensible.” An
example of a thesis statement is,
“Biblical inerrancy is defensible in the context of divine
freedom.” Remember, the purpose and
thesis statements determine the form and content of an outline.
The distinction between a purpose statement and a thesis
26. statement is important. The
purpose of this sample paper is to provide a template for the
correct formatting of a research
paper. The thesis is, “Students who use this paper as a sample
or template are more likely to
format their papers correctly in the future.”
Line Spacing
Section A.1.3 of the Turabian manual addresses line spacing.21
As mentioned above, all
text in papers should be double-spaced except for block quotes,
table titles, figure captions, and
lists in appendices. The table of contents, footnotes, and
bibliography entries should be single-
spaced internally, but double-spaced between each entry.22
Turabian specifies in Section A.2.2.4
to “put more space before a subheading than after.”23 Liberty
University recommends adding an

extra single-spaced line before each subheading, so the total
space between the end of one
section and the next subheading should be the equivalent of
three single-spaced lines (or one-
and-a-half double-spaced lines); this is demonstrated throughout
this sample paper and pre-
programmed into the Turabian templates. For those students
who wish to learn how to format
this element themselves, see the tutorial on formatting
subheadings. There should only be one
space after periods and other punctuation at the end of each
sentence, before beginning a new
sentence.24
Capitalization
Turabian style has two forms of capitalization for titl es:
headline-style and sentence-style.
In headline style, all major words in a title (usually those with
four or more letters, excepting
prepositions) begin with capital letters.25 In sentence-style,
only the first word of a title, the first
28. word of a subtitle, and proper nouns begin with capital
letters.26 Liberty University courses use
headline style for subheadings.
Chapters versus Subheadings
Turabian allows each writer to determine whether to use
subheadings or chapters to
divide his or her paper into sections.27 There are separate rules
for both. Chapters are usually
reserved for thesis projects and dissertations; subheadings are
often used for class papers of

graduate and doctoral students. Class assignments will specify
whether subheadings are
permitted or required.
Turabian allows great flexibility and individuality in how one
formats the various
subheading levels, when used. Liberty University has adopted
the format for heading levels
shown herein, for the sake of consistency and uniformity.
The title of a heading should never be “orphaned” at the bottom
of a page, without its
supporting text.28 If there is not enough room on the previous
page for both the heading title and
at least the first line of the paragraph, begin a new page.
Authors can, however, have two
headings in a row29 as shown on page 17 below. The formats
used and recommended in this
sample paper reflect that:
1. First-level headings should be centered, bolded, and use
headline-style capitalization.
30. 2. Second-level subheadings should be centered, not bolded, and
use headline-style
capitalization.
3. Third-level subheadings should be left-justified, bolded, and
use headline-style
capitalization.
4. Fourth-level subheadings—though rare in Turabian style—
should be left-justified, not
bolded, with only the first letter of the first word capitalized.
5. Fifth-level subheadings are extremely rare; they should be
indented ½” from the left
margin, not bolded, italicized, in sentence case (including a
period), followed by one
space, with the text following on the same line.

31. Except for fifth-levels, all text would begin on the line beneath
the heading. Note that
there must be at least two of any subheading used under a larger
heading.30 Turabian also does
not allow orphaned headings, where the heading appears at the
bottom of the page, isolated from
its content on the next page.31 First- and second-level
subheading levels are used throughout this
sample paper, but below is a visualization of each of five levels.
Contemporary Art (First-level)
What Are the Major Styles? (Second-level)
Abstract Expressionism (Third-level)
Major painters and practitioners (Fourth-level)
Pollack as the leader (Fifth-level). This one is unique in that the
text begins on the same
line.
“Voice” and Tense
As a general rule, use active voice and avoid first person (I, me,
we, us, our) or second
person (you, your) pronouns in academic writing unless
permitted by the assignment
32. instructions. This paper uses third person (one, this author). In
historical writing, use simple past
tense verbs, but when referring to an author’s written work, use
present tense.

Organizing a Paper Using an Outline
When writing a paper, students should organize their outline
first so that they are able to
plan how they will make their argument and then give their
reasoning and evidence to support
their thesis statement. The first paragraph of each section
should explain how this will fit into the
author’s reasoning, and then each section will end with a
summary of how the evidence has
33. shown such reasoning to be correct. Also, transitions are very
helpful at the end of each major
section so that the reader anticipates how the next section is
connected to the logical progression
of the reasoning the author uses to support his or her thesis.
Liberty University undergraduate papers will generally be less
than ten or twelve pages
and most will not use subheading levels or a contents page at all
(unless specified in the
instructions); most Liberty University graduate and doctoral
research papers will be no longer
than twenty pages and generally will not have long and detailed
outlines or subheadings beyond
the third level.32 Details that would be appropriate for the
fourth or fifth heading level tend to
distract the reader’s attention from the overall thesis within a
short essay (typically fewer than 20
pages). Even if a fourth level is unavoidable, a fifth level is
discouraged.
Quotations and Paraphrases
All content gleaned from another source will be presented as
either a quote or a
paraphrase. A paraphrase means that the original wording has
34. been change sufficiently into the
student’s own words while keeping the same meaning (not
simply just rearranging the order of
the words or replacing only a few of them); a direct quote
means that the words are used
verbatim, which requires quotation marks. Both require a
citation with a page number to the
32 Papers with ten to nineteen pages in the body are
recommended to include subheadings and a contents
page; those with twenty pages or more are required to do so; the
instructions will specify what is required.
12
original source. Quotes with four or fewer lines of text in the
student’s paper will be incorporated
into the text of the paragraph, as has been demonstrated herein
(such as the bottom of the first
paragraph on page ten).
Quotes that span five lines or more, however, must be block
quoted. Blocked quotations
are single-spaced with one blank line before and after each
35. excerpt, and the entire left margin of
the block quote is indented one half-inch. No quotation marks
are used when using a blocked
quotation, but do use them if it contains an internal quote.
Turabian requires blocked quotes to be
introduced in the writer’s own words.33 For example, Jackson
evokes the supremacy of home:
Housing is an outward expression of the inner human nature; no
society can be fully
understood apart from the residences of its members. A
nineteenth-century melody
declares, “There’s no place like home,” and even though she
had Emerald City at her
feet, Dorothy could think of no place she would rather be than
at home in Kansas. Our
home are our havens from the world.34
Citations
All content that is taken from another source must include a
citation, whether direct-
quoted or paraphrased. Though Turabian allows two forms of
citing sources in the body of a
paper, this sample paper focuses exclusively on the notes-
bibliography style. Chapters 16 and 17
36. of the Turabian manual focus on these elements (Chapter 14 in
the CMOS). The “N” denotes
(foot)notes, and the “B” denotes bibliography entries. Be sure to
use the correct format for each
since there are some variances between them for each resource.
Notably, the first/only author’s
name is inverted (i.e., last name first) in bibliography entries,
but not in notes.35

37. When formatting a footnote, indent the first line of each
footnote the same amount as the
first line of the paragraphs within the paper (1/2”). The
indentation should be before the
superscripted footnote number. Insert one space after the
superscript number before the first
word of the footnote.36 The footnotes should be single-spaced,
and there should be a single blank
space between (or 12-pt. line space after) each footnote.37 Font
within the footer should be 10
point (the OWC recommends Times New Roman, 10-pt.).
There is one notable exclusion to notes formatting that most
Liberty University students
will encounter. The version or translation of the Bible being
used must be identified in the text
with a parenthetical reference (e.g., 1 Cor 1:13, ESV).38 If an
author chooses to use the same
Bible translation (such as the English Standard Version)
throughout the paper, he or she should
add a footnote in the first usage stating, “Unless otherwise
noted, all biblical passages referenced
are in the English Standard Version.” This means that that
author will not need to reference the
version of the Bible in subsequent citations unless he or she
38. changes the version (otherwise, each
citation must also include a footnote entry crediting the source).
For example, if the student
identified the English Standard Version as the primary version
but chose to use the New
International Version (NIV) when quoting a particular verse
such as John 14:6, the parenthetical
citation following the …

Historical Context Essay Instructions
39. Each student will write a 400-500-word exegetical essay
describing the historical-cultural context of their selected
passage. This essay should be based primarily on a close
reading of the New Testament book in which the selected
passage is found. Therefore, students should prepare for their
essay by following the inductive method described below while
referring to the concepts covered in the assigned reading and
course materials. Please do not consult textbooks,
commentaries, or other resources until you have worked through
the scenario and method below.
Here is the inductive method you will use to construct the
essay:
1. Adopt the mindset of a detective or researcher. Imagine that
you’ve discovered an ancient text buried deep in the archives of
the Scriptorium in the Rawlings School of Divinity at Liberty
University (this sort of thing happens in libraries from time to
time). You have been tasked with deciphering the hand-written
Greek text and presenting a report about it to the Dean of the
School of Divinity. The Dean will be addressing the media with
information about the discovery, so you will need to determine,
as best as possible, the following information:
· who wrote the text;
· when it was written,
· where it was written;
· to whom it was addressed and sent;
· what purpose it served in those historical circumstances;
· and whether it is a forgery or fake (those do exist in the
antiquities market).
There is no textbook to grab that will give you these answers;
you are the expert since you’re the only person alive who has
read the text. Therefore, the only guidance you have is the
information in the text itself. Only be as precise as the
information in the text allows you to be. For the sake of getting
40. into the right mindset and maintaining good method, it might
help you to pretend that no book such as this exists in the New
Testament; though you are able to compare what you find in it
to the other books of the New Testament.
2. You must draft a report (400-500 words) for your Dean,
presenting this information, as best you can discern it, from the
text. Since the Dean will be addressing the media about the
discovery, any statement about the text’s historical
circumstances/context will need to be supported with evidence.
Therefore, when you describe the date or author, you need to
include the evidence from the text that led you to your
conclusions (use chapter and verse citations). Evaluate the
evidence so that your Dean knows how confident you are of the
information and conclusions in your report.
3. As part of your report, focus especially on the passage you
selected in Module/Week 1. Based on the information you’ve
given the Dean about broader historical questions (who, what,
when, where, why, and how?), do you think there are any
historical or cultural issues that the Dean should be aware of
when the media ask questions about the meaning of the passage?
Are there any events, customs, titles, activities, social
structures, or concepts that reflect the ancient historical
culture/setting, which might have an impact on how people
today interpret the meaning of this passage in the ancient text?
The Dean will need to tell the media what plans the Divinity
School has for further historical-cultural research of the text
and this focal passage. So, your report should prepare the Dean
with a recommendation.
Format:
The essay should be 400-500 words in 12 point, Times New
Romans font. Format per the Turabian guidelines. The purpose
of the scenario above is to help you get into the kind of mindset
that it will take to do well on this assignment. The point is to
41. read the text itself and reconstruct the historical-cultural
context based on a close reading of the internal evidence. Your
course professor does not need to read a report about what other
scholars think; you are the expert! With that said, please just
write the report that the scenario above calls for without
elaborating on the scenario itself. This assignment requires your
analysis, observations, and evaluation of the text.
This assignment is due by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of
Module/Week 3.
Resources for Turabian formatting may be found in the Online
Writing Center. Your paper should follow the footnote method
of citation.
