How to format your tasks
There is no specific formatting requirement for this course, but we strongly suggest that you label each prompt within your task. The task does not need to be written as a formal essay.
So for task 1, for example, you would start with a label “Part A1” and then write your answer to the prompt question. Then you label “Part A2” and write your answer to that prompt, and so on.
Don’t forget to include your in-text and reference citations, which are required even if you don’t directly quote your source and only use the course material.
E. Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.
