In an essay of 4 to 6 pages (1,000 to 1,500 words), please answer the following prompt.

I do not expect you to supplement these sources with outside research. I also expect you to provide appropriate citations to your sources. If this is the text, you should use parenthetical endnoting with specific page references (e.g. Ginsberg, et. al. 2021: 41). If you are citing a lecture, you should provide the lecture number.  Videos should be named using the title from the web page.  Please cite forum posts by the author’s name and the date of the post.

I will send course materials when you confirm my question.
