Chicago Manual of Style Assignment

I’m trying to study for my History course and I need some help to understand this question.

Based on the information covered in Rampolla in the assigned reading, you will respond to a set of questions, found here, to define the purpose of a thesis statement, clarify what is not a thesis statement, show the correct way to format footnotes (including electronic sources), demonstrate the proper way to cite quotes, give examples of primary and secondary sources, and use the correct method of listing bibliographic references. The material in this assignment will link directly to the guidelines and requirements for the Term Paper, due in Week 7. The assignment includes guidance on where to find the relevant material in the Rampolla text for each question.
