I WILL SEND THE FINAL RUBRIC TO THE SCHOLAR Guidelines for Proposed Topic and References for Final Paper  Step 1 - Choose a topic. Write your topic in one sentence.

This does not guarantee that you will earn this grade. Page 8 also tells you what kinds of references you need for this paper. You can use professional journal articles, textbooks from our class or other classes, and government only (federal, state, local, or from other country’s governments) internet sources. You need two articles or references from our class. Any article in the Cherlin reader is acceptable, even if we do not read it for this class.  Locating references from professional journal articles Go to the CSUF home page Select the tab, “Libraryâ€Â On the library home page, select the tab, “Data basesâ€Â. Write in the space, psycinfo. This data base has the largest selection of research articles on the family. When you get to psycinfo, go to the Thesaurus and write in your term. You may have to use separate lines for each part of your topic Example: Latinos, parent- child relations You can use other library resources or Google Scholar for finding references There is an APA reference format in the Class Business section.
