The Evolution of the Pocket Mice

Write a two-page literature review paper on any topic weve discussed recently in class. Include correctly-cited references to at least ten peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, and a bibliography of these references attached AFTER the two-page paper. No pictures or quotations allowed anywhere. The work must be your own, no plagiarism of course. Use Times New Roman 12point font, and double-space the pages. You must have a theme that is well-supported by your references; unconnected paragraphs each summarizing one reference will not be acceptable.


Students often send in bibliographies with links to papers. Dont need that. Just do this:

Walker, C. and Walker, J. 2017. Why do college juniors still not know how to build bibliographies? J. Bitchy Profs. 60: 127-141.

You probably shouldnt cite a book for this paper, but if you need to, do this:

Walker, C. 2018. I Taught Pearl Jam How to Make Music You Are Dreaming Publishers, 222 pages.

If the journal you are citing doesnt have a publication date, or author(s), dont use it as a source.
