In text citations

roxannex

The document discusses how to create in-text citations when integrating sources into academic writing. It explains that in-text citations include the author's last name, year of publication, and page or paragraph number if quoting directly from the source. For paraphrasing or summarizing a source, only the author's name and year are needed. Signal phrases can be used to introduce a source, in which case only the page or paragraph number is necessary in the citation. Different citation formats are required depending on whether the source has one or multiple authors or if the publication date is unknown.

Annotated Bibliography

BRYAN CARTER

An annotated bibliography is an organized list of sources with a brief description or annotation for each source. The purpose is to provide a review of the literature on a topic and illustrate the quality of research done. Annotations typically describe the content and usefulness of the source, any limitations, intended audience, research methods used, and a reaction. Annotations follow bibliographic entries in a consistent style such as MLA and are usually arranged alphabetically by author's last name. Annotations are brief but include significant details about each source.

In text citation lesson

This document discusses citing sources in MLA format. It explains that there are two main ways to include in-text citations: naming the author in a signal phrase or placing the author's name in parentheses.

DOUBLE-CLICK TO INSERT SHORT TITLE (50 CHARACTERS OR LESS) .docx

ShiraPrater50

DOUBLE-CLICK TO INSERT SHORT TITLE (50 CHARACTERS OR LESS) 1 DOUBLE-CLICK TO TYPE IN ABBRIEVATED TITLE (50 CHARACTERS OR LESS) 2This Is Your Title: It Should Be Less Than Twelve Words Your Name Course Name College Name Abstract The abstract is on its own page. The first paragraph of the abstract should not be indented. It is typically 150 to 250 words and summarizes the main points of the paper. It should include your thesis and summarize your main points and results. Do not include quotations here. Define any abbreviations and acronyms you use in the paper here. You might want to write it after you’ve written the rest of your paper, so that it’s easy to summarize. In academic publishing, writing a good abstract is important, because it is the first, and sometimes only, bit of information your readers get to help them decide whether they should read or buy your article. After this paragraph, there is a page break that forces the beginning of your paper onto its own page: You will want to keep it there. This Is Your Title: It Should Be Less Than Twelve Words This is your introduction and thesis paragraph. The introduction should be about five or six sentences and provide some background or context for your topic. Do not use I or you in academic writing. When appropriate, include recent events relating to the topic. For example, if you are writing about cyber warfare, you might mention Russia using cyber-attacks to influence the last US presidential election. Your thesis should be one sentence and outline the main points of the paper. Literature Review or Background Summarize and quote the important research on this topic that has gone before you. Define subject-specific vocabulary or related theory. Usually, you want to look at books for background. You might want to use your textbook or an encyclopedia to find the names of researchers or theories that are important to the topic, then, search for those names on the library website. Use keywords when research of your topic in databases (example: cyber warfare or cyber attack) to find related articles and books. Need help? Ask A Librarian. Anytime you summarize what someone else has said, include the author’s last name and year either in the text or in parentheses at the end. If you quote someone else, include the author’s last name, year, and page number either in the text or in parentheses at the end. If an article has three to five authors, write their last names out the first time, then cite only the first author’s last name followed by “et al.” If an article has six or more authors, include only the first author’s last name followed by “et al.” If the source does not have an author, such as a website, put the name of the article or webpage in parentheses at the end. The whole point of in-text citations is so your reader can find the correct source in your References, so make sure authors or titles match both in-text and in References.

3Podcast ReviewDirectionsYou will write a critical revie.docx

rhetttrevannion

3 Podcast Review Directions You will write a critical review of a history podcast. You can choose from the following podcasts on iTunes. Origins of the Cold War Reconstruction at 150 Cold War Ideology The Space Race The Korean War Postwar Culture Election of 1968 You will write a 600-word review that incorporates content from the podcast and relevant historical content from the textbook or some other secondary source. Your review should expose the reader to important issues raised in the podcast. If you fail to adhere to the guidelines, you will receive a zero on your review. The review is worth twenty-five (25) points and 10 percent of your final grade. Questions for the Review The following questions have been included to guide your writing. They should not appear in the text of the review i.e. do not type them into the body of the review. And you cannot merely answer the questions in chronological order. · What historical content does the podcast discuss? · What specific theme in the podcast do you wish to analyze in detail? · How does the podcast grab and hold the attention of the listener? · Is the listener’s world view challenged and /or expanded by the podcast? Explain. · Does the podcast expose the listener to issues, social, political and/or moral that you think are important? · What is the context of the issue presented in the podcast? What history must the listener know so that they can better understand the context? Provide specific details. · Who should listen to the podcast and who should not listen to it? Policy on Late Papers I do not accept late papers. If you fail to submit the paper by the due date, then you will receive a paper grade of zero (0). General Guidelines 1. You must use one-inch margins all around. Do not use larger margins. Exaggerated margins give papers an awkward appearance. More importantly they do not compensate for brief or incomplete ideas. 2. You must use a cover sheet that provides the paper title, your name, Montclair State University, and date. Begin typing your paper one-inch from the top of the second page. All tabs should equal a half-inch. The cover sheet does not count as a page of text. 3. You are required to use Times New Roman, size 12. If you are unable to meet the minimum length do not resort to using size 14, 16 or larger fonts. Large fonts give papers a comical appearance. 4. You must write at least 600 words of narrative text. 5. Make sure you double-space your paper. Single and 1.5 spacing give a crowded appearance. 6. Proofread your work with care. Spelling errors will weaken your grade significantly. Do not rely on spell checkers since they are of limited value. Spell checkers cannot distinguish between homonyms like wood and would. 7. Avoid using contractions. Instead of writing “don’t” and “won’t” write out the words so that they read “do not” and “will not.” 8. Avoid using “I think,” “I believe,” “we,” “you” and .

Before forming your own thesis, click here to read “A Word about the Thesis” posted in “Handouts and Course Documents.” attach below When forming the thesis (argument, opinion), recall that a good opinion is always supported by facts.

Just a reminder for anyone who needs it: When writing from the first-person point of view of a law enforcement officer, the voice in your entire essay must be the voice of a law enforcement officer (or hunter, or anti-gun person, or convicted felon), and the voice must be especially strong in the introductory and concluding paragraphs. Do not write about the voice, be the voice. Write from only one point of view, not all four. The language in assignments that require writing from a particular point of view must conform to the “Checklist for Essays and Other Writing Assignments.” For example, a dirty rotten scoundrel would probably use some unsavory language filled with inappropriate expletives, but if an English Composition student were writing from the point of view of a dirty rotten scoundrel, the voice must be that of a dirty rotten scoundrel, but the writing (usage, grammar, language mechanics) must be suitable for English Composition classroom expectations.

Running head: TITLE OF PAPER 1 TITLE OF PAPER 5 Title of Your Essay Your Name Course Number & Title Instructor's Name Month, Day, Year Title of Your Essay Start the first paragraph here. It should introduce your reader to the subject you are writing about, as well as your particular position or claim. To learn more about what an introduction should include and what to include in a conclusion, please see the following resource: Introductions & Conclusions. Please read about thesis statements on our Ashford Writing Center website: Thesis Statements. Other helpful tools on our website are the Thesis Generator and Moving from Prompt to Thesis. The Writing Process Spend time planning your paper. Before you can create your first paragraph, consider these “pre-writing” tips. A good practice is to brainstorm ideas and decide how to express the main idea or thesis. Once you have a rough idea of what you want to say or argue, create an outline or list to help you organize the evidence you plan to present. For longer papers, include sub-headings or levels of heading. You can use this template to help you format your paper. Writing the Body Paragraphs Each paragraph of your assignment should be clear and easy to follow. We have several good resources to help you write a strong paragraph, such as How to Write a Good Paragraph and the P.I.E. Paragraph Structure. Using Citations Correctly In addition to being well-written, each paragraph should include an in-text citation to all ideas, references, or quotations that are from outside sources and research. The Ashford Writing Center provides many resources to help you follow correct citation style (primarily APA) and gives lessons and examples of how to paraphrase and cite sources. The APA Key Elements page is a good place to start. Using Tables, Graphs, Images, and Appendices For some papers and reports, you may choose to add a table, graph, or image within the body of the draft. Or you may choose to include an appendix at the end of your paper. These can help to provide a visual representation of data or other information that you wish to relay to your reader. Follow this guidance to understand when and how to use these features. References The following are commonly used references.

Running head RULES FOR CREATING A RESEARCH 1 .docx

charisellington63520

Running head: RULES FOR CREATING A RESEARCH 1 Rules for Creating a Research Paper Using Correct 6 th Edition APA Formatting Author’s Full Name Rasmussen College Author Note This research is being submitted on September 15, 2009 for John Smith's ENC1100 course at Rasmussen College by Jane Doe. Insert page number. After the running head, enter 8 times. Click the “Center” button. Type the title of your paper, which should be more than two or three words. These lines should be double-spaced. If you have a long title, you may type it on two lines. For the Running head, type in part of your title in ALL CAPS after the words “Running head”. Left-justify the text in the header. Running head: RULES FOR CREATING A RESEARCH 2 Rules for Creating a Research Paper Using Correct 6 th Edition APA Formatting An APA formatted paper is created using one-inch margins at the top, bottom, left, and right sides. APA papers are always double spaced. Paragraphs are indented ½ inch. Just type the TAB key once. The body of your paper consists of the information you researched on your paper’s topic in order to support your own position or thesis. If the information in your paper is not your own original thought, you need to include an in-text citation and a references page to give credit to the original author of the idea. Your paper should include direct quotes and paraphrasing. You will notice in this paper, there are several different types of in-text citations, and they have been created using correct APA formatting for in-text citations. Types of In-Text Citations In-text citations are used when you paraphrase, summarize, or otherwise refer to information you’ve learned during your research. The first two in-text citations in this paper are examples of how to set up in-text citations when you’re paraphrasing, summarizing, or referring to the information from a source rather than copying text word for word. They demonstrate how to give credit to the author. For the first type of citation, place the author’s last name and the year of publication at the end of the sentence in parenthesis (Reed, 2005). Notice the comma and space after the author’s name and notice the period for the sentence is after the final parentheses. Another variation is when you use the author’s name at the beginning of the sentence. In the following sentence, you will notice that Mary Nelson’s last name only appears at the beginning of the sentence; therefore, the in-text citation immediately follows her name. According to Nelson (2005), the use of APA formatting for in-text citations is very easy to complete. The paper begins with the full title of the paper. In-text citation for first type of paraphrase quote. In-text citation for second type of paraphrase quote. Example of first level heading. Running head: RULES FOR C.

MLA Citations 2009

Medway High School

The document provides guidelines for formatting papers and citations using MLA style. It discusses creating a header on each page with the author's last name and page number. For citations, MLA uses parenthetical citations with the author's last name and page number. Long quotes that are more than 4 lines should be in a block of text indented from the left margin without quotation marks. Short quotes under 4 lines are within double quotation marks with the page number in parentheses after.

Research Paper Writing 101: Mistakes to Avoid

Rafey Iqbal Rahman

MLA Review 1 MLA Review Please read this week’s Lesso.docx

roushhsiu

MLA Review 1 MLA Review Please read this week’s Lessons and then read the information below. What is the purpose of Modern Language Association (MLA)? According to Hacker, there are three main objectives in MLA: “(1) supporting a thesis, (2) citing your sources and avoiding plagiarism, and (3) integrating quotations and other source material” (395). You have already learned how to write a thesis and how to compose a well- organized essay. Now it is time to learn how to include research to support your ideas. Why do I need to include research in my writing? Quite simply, we do not know everything. We need to research whatever topic we are discussing to learn more about it and also to support our claims. Hacker explains, “expert opinion can give weight to your argument” (398). For example, if I were writing a paper about Abraham Lincoln, I would already know some things about him, but not all. If I wanted to emphasize his work towards ending slavery, for example, it would be great to include scholarly research about this to support my claims. Through research, I could find specific dates and legislation and other important work that the president put forth towards this worthy cause. Hacker writes, “in a research paper, you will draw on the work of other writers, and you must document their contributions by citing your sources.
