Definition: (Gerson & Gerson, pp. 68-69) Select a term from your field. Write an extended definition for a first-year student in the field. For this  portion of the assignment, use at least one outside reference and cite the  reference appropriately. Use APA (American Psychological Association)  parenthetical references (in-text citations) for citing within the text of your  response. Use the APA References (bibliography) examples for the end of the  piece (Gerson & Gerson pp. 456-461).  Be careful about letting Microsoft Word do your citations, sometimes it does  them incorrectly. List the types of expansion techniques you used (minimum of two different  techniques for each expansion). Write an extended definition for a layperson. For this portion of the  assignment, use at least one outside reference and cite the reference  appropriately (both within the document and on the citation page). Please use a  standard source, not Wikipedia. Some of the best sources are industry or  academic associations that deal with the topic. List the types of expansion techniques you used (minimum of two different  techniques for each expansion). In addition, give a summary explanation of your  changes (not a summary of the definition). A summary explanation will include  what you changed from one definition to the other and why you changed it. Refer to Module 2. For additional information, see  https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/622/01/ Be careful about saying things like: The dictionary definition of… Or, Webster’ s definition of…. That’s too easy. In addition, there are many Webster’s  dictionaries, and if you ever use one, must identify it specifically: the  Merriam-Webster New Collegiate Dictionary, Webster’s II New Riverside  Dictionary, Encyclopedia Britannica Online, etc. Note: This assignment becomes "locked" (you can't submit it) after Nov. 16,  2013. Assignments submitted after the due date but before Nov. 18 will have  points deducted. If you have any questions about it, please e-mail me long  before it's due--not just a few hours ahead of the deadline.
