I have begun a paper but am struggling to ensure that my APA 7th edition citations are correct. I am also struggling to complete the paper in a proper manner with proper information. I have collected some resources and I am half way through the paper but need assistance to finish it and ensure all my referencing is correct as this is a huge factor in my grade.  I have attached the paper below. 

Due: After you have completed Unit 7, approximately Week 7 of the Suggested Study Schedule
Value: 20% of final grade
Length: 1000–1200 words (approximately four pages single-spaced)
Format: Short essay. All sources must be cited in-text and included in a reference list following an academic format such as APA. Please consult the guide to writing essays in the Course Information.
Topic
The readings in Units 3 to 6 discuss the major developments in the four main sectoral areas of Canadian cultural policy: the arts, the cultural industries, heritage, and diversity issues. Please write a short essay on this topic, beginning with an account of challenges and successes in the past 60–70 years.
To begin, provide an introduction explaining which sector(s), in your opinion, faced the greatest challenges and which maintained the most stability during this period. Please explain the reasons for your assessment.
For the main section of your essay, focus on one of the four sectors. Explore the extent to which programs, funding, and regulatory and administrative measures have kept pace with developments in cultural policy. For instance, have programs and initiatives in the sector of arts policy adequately responded to the sector’s needs and to the public interest? Has regulation and funding been effective in meeting policy goals? Please feel free to include your own observations or experiences from any professional experience you may have.
Please support your arguments with examples. You may use graphic elements such as tables, images, lists, or timelines to convey data.
In your essay, draw upon at least six of the required and recommended readings. You must use one or two of the required readings from each unit and use the required readings to reach or exceed the total of six.
Bonus points: One bonus point will be given for an illustrative quotation directly from one of the government policy documents listed for each unit. Up to 5 bonus points.
Indicate your sources with (Author, p. x), and indicate policy sources with the name of the policy.

For your first short assignment in our class you will need to create a discussion board that engages a current news development in hip hop culture. This practice will help us all do more than speculate on the culture by joining some of its larger conversations and debates. The only requirements for these assignments (you will complete two this summer) are: (a) your submission must be 500 words. You can use this post to pose a question to the class or to raise awareness about something happening locally or nationally. Make sure the writing is clear, but it does not need to be formal. Be creative. You’re starting a conversation–invite your audience in to engage in the topic with you. (b) It must be related to a current event or development in the culture Work to write about things that have happened within the last year.
Remember that human attention spans are decreasing so 500 words is actually a stretch for most folks (especially if they spend a lot of time on social media networks and other digital platforms). Whatever you include in your post should be direct and meaningful and must consider what is happening now in hip hop.

Complete: Travel Abroad Guidance Document
*Please see attached references and grading rubric*
Imagine you have been hired as a communications consultant
tasked with creating an educational travel document for a group of people
preparing to traveling internationally. You will need to produce a document
that provides them with the necessary information to know to follow
intercultural communication competence guidelines while traveling abroad. 
To complete this assignment, you will choose one of
the following audiences:
University
students preparing to study abroad
Tourists
preparing to visit a foreign country
Employees
at a company preparing for an overseas work trip
Once you have chosen one of the audiences
above, you will produce a leaflet, pamphlet, or guidance document that prepares
your audience with the advice and information they need to know to follow
intercultural communication competence guidelines while traveling abroad.
Directions:
Choose
an audience for your document (students studying abroad; tourists
traveling internationally; employees at a company working overseas).
Review
the information included from Module 4 with your audience in mind. What do
they need to know in order to practice intercultural communication
competence on their trip? What course concepts do you want to be sure to
teach them? What other information will be important to include? 
In the
style of an informational travel guidance document, create a
pamphlet/brochure/flyer/handout/etc. that communicates this information to
your audience. 
Feel
free to get as creative with this assignment as you wish. You are welcome
to include photos and graphics. You can also choose an imaginary
destination for your audience. For example, you can make specific such as
imagining the students are preparing to study abroad in Italy, and you can
customize your information and advice for them to that specific culture.
You can also make up as much backstory on your audience as you like. For
example, these could be UW-Whitewater Business Students preparing to study
abroad in Rome, Italy. 
Requirements:
Be
sure to explicitly reference 2 to 3 course concepts. You will need to
define course concepts for your audience, as we can’t assume they are
familiar with the concepts we have been learning in this class. 
The
final document should be professional and polished, and written in a style
of writing appropriate for your audience.
