Q1.

So by now we have all been writing papers for a little while and I read this week’s forum and saw that I should share some helpful hints which could potentially assist you with this journey in completing this senior seminar. I will try to dispense with this and please do not judge me I am only here to help.

Helpful hint #1

APA is just a format and we have been using it or at least I hope you have. If you haven’t a good resource is Perdue University (Purdue Writing Lab). A simple google search for APA format will bring up their page specifically for this particular format. In addition they offer images and examples of what a paper should look like the only issue I have (mainly from my OCD) is I haven’t seen what the proper spacing is for the title page for the title. I have always winged it for that and I do not recall getting points taken off for it.

Helpful hint #2

Citation Machine (“Citation Machine® – Write Smarter, Cite Accurately”). There I said it I use citation machine on a lot of my citations. Writing citations is a thing I have never gotten the hang of and so when I am citing a website which is almost all of the time I use this Citation Machine.  When I am unable to cite with this tool I will take the time and plug in all the information into my Microsoft Word “References” tool and use that to do my citation.

I hope I have been helpful to someone.

Q2.

The only question that I had on APA format pertains to references. I used this guidance and was told this is not the proper format once before.
