Memories

Memories

Define the terms false memories, traumatic memory, repressed memories, and recovered memory therapy. Discuss the relationship among these concepts, providing your own perspective, being sure to support all assertions with specific references to course texts and additional required sources. In your replies, focus on exemplifying the different concepts, drawing on the literature and experience.

For each forum, the student is required to create a 400–450-word thread addressing a specific topic which must fully address the assigned topic, incorporate relevant ideas from the course texts, as well as least two relevant journal articles, articulating course-related knowledge and demonstrating critical reflection

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
