How do we make our bibliography stronger?

Click on the "analyze" button in EasyBib. It will tell you what you still need to add. For most, journal articles will bring up the score. Consider EBSCO Host for journal articles. -- Mrs. Yasurek

Outline Arrangement

Is it possible to rearrange certain elements in a body paragraph for better influence or flow? For example, can I add some support as a hook, then the topic sentence to clarify?

Paper Length

Is it alright if my rough draft exceed a little over three pages? The header and in-text citations take up a significant amount of space.
