Summary of assignment
Task: The four-source essay asks you to synthesize the arguments of four sources.
Length: Minimum of 1000 words. The instructor will give you comments on the first draft
and let you know if you need more development beyond 1000 words.
Format: APA
Sources: Four sources, all of which you will find through library searches. If you haven’t
firmly chosen a topic for WA#1, you will select a topic of your choice, conduct searches in
the library databases, focus the topic, and determine four sources to use in this essay. (Of
course, you may have chosen a firm topic that you used for WA#1. Four of these five sources
are appropriate to use for WA#2 unless your instructor indicates otherwise.)

o All of your sources must be from scholarly journals or credible trade journals.
No sources can be from popular journals.
o Please use only four sources. Please do not incorporate more than four sources into
this essay.

Articles to Use for the Essay
For this essay, you will select four articles on a topic of your choice. The articles should be on the
same topic but feature different perspectives, opinions, or conclusions about some aspects of the
topic.

Organization for this Essay
You will write an introductory paragraph with a thesis statement. Your thesis statement will
demonstrate what the various sources say on the topic.
You will also have various body paragraphs that show synthesis. In synthesizing sources, you
will divide your paper into themes.

For example, let us assume that you find four articles on the need for improved training for
employees on mobile security issues. In this situation, assume that the four articles emphasize
different issues. One emphasizes the costs of data breaches to companies. Another emphasizes
reasons that employees do not practice safe cybersecurity practices. Another discusses methods for
training employees. Another mentions costs of training for such initiatives.
You might divide the paper into two categories:
Reasons for implementing a training program
Methods of and costs involved in implementing a training program

After developing the body of your essay, you will want to write a strong conclusion. Remember to
summarize the material developed in the body in the conclusion. You might also consider calling
for further research on the topic in your conclusion.

Point of view
For this essay, you will use third-person point of view.
Please do not use first person point of view (e.g., I, me, we) in writing this essay.
In addition, please do not use second-person point of view (you or your) in writing this essay.
For example, instead of Smith argues that, as a director, you have a duty to coordinate
cybersecurity efforts… you would write, Smith argues that directors have a duty to coordinate
cybersecurity efforts…
