A few pointers on what not to do. You will lose points if you write in the first person or write in the
present tense. This is a history paper and the events took place in the past. If you are having trouble
writing in the first person, feel free to send me a paragraph or so of your work. I will be glad to illustrate
what can be done here.
Give your essay a title.
Spell out contractions. Example: don’t = do not. Didn’t = did not.
Limit your use of descriptives. He, she, they, and so on are acceptable. Do not rely on these in your
essay. Example: DO NOT write…’He pioneered the method as he…” Instead you will write …”Ford
pioneered the method as he…”
The word IT. There is a person, place, thought, or object that IT describes. Take the time and make the
effort to describe IT. You will find your writing improve when doing this.

….I do not know how you can write on the topic of your choice without some outside research. I do not
require a minimum number of outside sources, but I highly recommend using them. DO NOT use and
cite Wikipedia. Use legitimate sites and publications. If you are not sure of what makes a legitimate
source, ask me. As I mentioned in class and included in your prompt, use MLA formatting for your essay.
