Historians often characterize the period from Thomas Jeffersons presidency to Andrew Jacksons presidency as a dynamic, paradigm shift. For this assignment, describe at least three aspects of this shift, either good or bad, including how Jefferson and Jackson influenced each aspect either directly or indirectly. You must: Write 500-750 words using correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Do not use first person pronouns such as I and we. Follow the MLA Style Guide as shown on the Purdue Owl Writing Lab at https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/. Use a 12 point font such as Arial or Times New Roman, 1 margins, and double space. Be sure to give your submission a descriptive title and include other heading information as specified in the MLA Style Guide. Use the textbook as one source, then find at least two other scholarly sources for a total of three sources. Note: Wikipedia is not an acceptable source. Although most of the paper should be in your own words, judicious use of quotations and/or examples from your sources will strengthen your argument. Therefore, use of quotations will count 25% percent of your essay grade. A good rule of thumb for “judicious use” is that Turnitin should report 25% or less of your paper as coming from other sources. You may submit your assignment as many times as you wish. I grade only the latest submission so if you find your Turnitin percentage is too high, work on your paper and resubmit. The quotations should include appropriate in-text citations following the MLA style laid out in the Purdue Owl Online Writing Lab. Include a reference for each source you use at the end of your submission on a Works Cited page, again using MLA style.
