The post will be written as a formal essay. Your essay will be specifically related to a theory of speech production (chapter 4 in the textbook). You will have a thesis statement supporting one of the theories. Please see the videos provided by the professor in the announcements if you do not know how to write a formal essay and need to understand the main components. Any information that is not general knowledge, that you obtained from a source, you are required to cite (in any format) in order to avoid plagiarism. For example, “According to the textbook…” or “Ludden et al., (2015) stated that…”. This means you will likely be citing a source at least every paragraph. You are required to put citations from your textbook and each of your articles within your paper at least one time according to any format. You are required to include your textbook and articles in a reference section at the back of your paper in any format. You will have the following headings; Introduction, Literature Review, Discussion, Conclusion, Reference Section (you can include your own subheadings if you like, under these headings).
