to refer to specific theories in your response.

As
a reminder, here are instructions from the course
outline:
Essays
should have sufficient breadth and depth to indicate
more than a passing awareness of the issues raised
in the questions. Grading will be determined based
on the thoroughness of response and the ability to
properly apply knowledge gained through reading the
text. Essays should be "term paper quality." Pay
attention to spelling, sentence and paragraph structure,
organization, and citations. Your papers should use
APA style , which is described in the Publication Manual
of the American Psychological Association (5th edition,
2001).
Questions
typically contain multiple parts. This is not done
to make questions more difficult. Multiple parts are
recommended to provide guidance that will lead to a
high quality answer. Remember to address each section
but do not assume that the ideas raised in each section
are the only issues to be addressed in your response.
Completed
essays should be e-mailed to mentor@nmsu.edu. Although
I have several e-mail addresses, this is the only one
you should use for this class. My computer can only
read certain formats. Fortunately, these are popular
formats and you should be able to submit assignments
without any problems. If you are using Microsoft Word,
just save as word and send. If you are using any other
program please save as .rtf before sending. Don't put
anything after the dot - let the computer take care
of this. For example, "exam1.joe" will not
open on my computer. Use "exam1_joe" instead
and let the computer add the .doc or .rtf after your
file name. Send papers as attachments. Use the body
of the message to tell me what you are sending so I
will know that you are sending an intended attachment
rather than a virus or other malicious attachment.
