Dream and Explore
This paper is for you to research and write about another country in which you would like to visit. What is the culture like? What to see? Where do you eat? How can travel benefit us as we learn about the world?
Most students enjoy this exercise. Find a place and make a plan. Dream and make it happen. Think about traveling responsibly as we learned from the Elephant Nature Park in Week One. Please do not ride elephants or contribute to organizations that do not promote humane and natural respect.
*Please use the Writing Center, and use other resources for the best paper possible. Per APA you must have a reference page, cite sources in-text and have a low plagiarism score. Do not use Wikipedia. And only use the diction sparingly. Find credible sources that lend to your message. You must cite sources in-text.
**You will turn in your best work for grading. This is not an exercise in submitting a draft, getting feedback and resubmission. What you turned in will be the final version of your paper that will be edited and as perfect as you can get it. Then, I will grade it and offer feedback to apply to future assignments. Do your best work, edit it repeatedly and use the Writing Center.
