Many of our students are asked to write research papers and find themselves in need of help and assisstance with the formatting and style required of them. The APA (American Psychological Association) formatting and style is the one used by the social sciences. Click here and you will be able to read about how to write a paper using this style. Business students are also requested to use the APA style.
The MLA (Modern Langauge Association) formatting and style is used to write a paper within the liberal arts and humanities. Click here and you will be able to read about how to write a paper using this style.
Here I am including a Guide to Writing a Basic Essay. Click here to access it. It will take you through the steps.
Excellent idea! Our students need to know how to use the Styles.
I would like to add a link that show how to work with References and Citations in Microsoft Word 2007. This new version is really good for academic papers.
The link is:
