Your first major paper in this class is to develop an academic essay that uses one of the articles from the International Journal of Bahamian Studies above as a springboard. While I encourage you to come up with other topics (as long as they relate to one of the articles), here are some possible approaches:
- How does the use of corporal punishment connect to religious belief in the Bahamas?
Remember, the above are just topics/approaches. It is up to you to develop and focus these topics into a specific, unique, and academic thesis statement and approach.
For this essay, you must incorporate at least six sources, four of which need to be academic sources. You must have at least one academic source with a direct quote in each body paragraph. Please use APA style for this essay.
Length: 5 pages (rough draft)
