MODULE FORMATTING TIPS
To avoid failing this course, Go to APA
Guide
Newspaper articles must be printed
from the website and not from a word
document
Article Attachment Guidelines
Must be printed directly from webpage
NO LOOSE ARTICLES – must be stapled,
taped, or glued to a piece of paper directly
after the exercise
Hand write exercise number (and letter, if
applicable) on article printout
Articles must be dated within past six
months
Don’t include formatting guidelines
APA Citation
Workshop
Brief Overview of Module
Papers
Quick Review…
 APA is like MLA in that there’s both
internal references and a final
references list at the end of the
document.
 APA is also called the “name-date”
format of citation. Inclusion of the
date in internal citations is one of the
main ways that APA differs from MLA.
TWO PART SYSTEM
Internal References –a.k.a parenthetical
References
Internal Reference System
Use an internal reference both when
quoting directly or paraphrasing.
Understand how to include multiple
authors in an internal citation.
Understand how to format a references
page and cite the following on it:
Book
Newspaper Article
Website
How to internally reference…
Here are the correct citations:
“Eight murders are deterred by every legal
execution” (Maier, 1999, p. 32).
There are multiple other APA-approved
formats for internal citations, but this is
the only format we will accept in this
class.
Remember that if you are using
direct quotes you must include the
page number of the text as well.
Reference Page(s)
Appears at the end
Every internal cite must have a
reference
Look at the APA guide under Modules
on the PAF 101 website and follow the
exact format of the References page.
APA Guide Use PAF 101 Website (Penn
State)
How a website citation should
look…
McMellen, M. (2005). Closing the achievement gap.
Retrieved September 2, 2005, from
http://www.nysdoe/mmcmellen/0987.htm
ALWAYS REMOVE HYPERLINK in References
Don’t Plagiarize!
Any direct quote must be in quotation
marks with an internal citation
Failure to do so results in a zero for
your paper

the Maxwell Manual
