Outline & Structure: The original article should consist of approx 500 words discussing jousting during the period of the War of the Roses and its use in warfare and as a sport.

The EDU Gaming project is of an educational nature and therefore reference should be made to historic and archaeological sources where possible. The article should be fully referenced using either a numerical system or the Harvard system. With an article of 500 words a minimum of 5 references are expected.

Extra notes: We publish articles on a variety of educational topics that relate to featured video games on our website. These topics can include science, computing, history, economics and many other subjects.

This job posting is a trial task and part of our search for engaging authors to produce articles for our website on a regular basis. If we are happy with the result of the first article we would be interested in hiring continued services through PPH either on a bi-weekly or monthly basis.

Price of articles may be negotiated.
