Formatting

Format your paper using a standard font, such as Times New Roman,

12 point, double-spaced. Set the margins at a standard 1 inch on all

sides. Since you’ve given your information on the cover sheet, no

header is necessary.

For the body of your paper, make a clear distinction when you’re

answering the questions about Case Study 1 and answer questions

1–5 in complete sentences. Then move on to Case Study 2 and

continue in the same format.
