Day 27: Reference Page Citations

Today You Will Learn How to:
  • Describe the relationship between reference page citations and in-text citations 
  • Use the APA Student Handbook and other online resources to locate APA citation rules 
  • Write and edit APA reference page citations for different kinds of sources (e.g. books, journals, websites, multiple authors) 
Class Today:
Review 
What styles of citation are there? Why do we cite? What have you already learned about citation?

Warm-Up 
I will give each group of 3 people a reference list. What patterns do you see in the reference list? What information is always there? How is each part of the information mentioned?

Elict Patterns 
What did you notice? Let's look at the page together, here. Now you can use this handbook to help you.
