Research Paper/Process The Final Check

DON’T FORGET TO CITE! Rule: cite author name (Schiffler 5) Rule exception: no author, use title (“Citing Correctly” para. 3) (“Citing Correctly” 3)

Two Sources by the Same Author? order the entries alphabetically by title, and use three hyphens in place of the author's name for every entry after the first: Burke, Kenneth. A Grammar of Motives. [...] ---. A Rhetoric of Motives. [...] This is important!

Quoting a Quote You cite the source you saw it in. Citation: (qtd. in “Found it Elsewhere” para. 4) (qtd. in “Found it Elsewhere” 4)

Essay No-No’s Title: -Centered -Same size font and -Same style font -NO bold or underline or ANYTHING Heading: only on first page Your Name Instructor Course/Not Hour Date: Day Month Year (24 October 2013)

Essay No-No’s Embedding a quote within your essay: According to the MLA Guide, “This is an example quote you may add to your essay” (36). -use quotation marks -page number in parentheses -period AFTER the parentheses

Essay No-No’s ALWAYS have a lead-in for direct quotes “It is important to explain the relevance of direct quotes.” In order to make writing sound more sophisticated, Schiffler believes that, “It is important to explain the relevance of direct quotes” (52).

Essay No-No’s Book titles: ITALICIZE Article and Journal titles: “In Quotes” Abbreviations: write it out the first time, letters the second time National Security Agency (NSA)

Essay No-No’s People use WHO; things use THAT She is someone WHO The book is something THAT spell out numbers zero-ten; use digits after that (11+) NO contractions! Can’t = cannot won’t = will not

Essay No-No’s Avoid “drama” words! WRITE IN THIRD PERSON! Really, very, extremely, major, huge, totally, way… These are unnecessary words! WRITE IN THIRD PERSON! “I will explain…” “This essay will examine” “In my opinion” NO! Take yourself out of it; don’t tell me what you’re going to do-just do it!
