Parenthetical Citations and the Research Paper Take notes, you’re gonna need this

Research Paper for Senior Project You have the awesome opportunity to explore careers that interest you! Take this opportunity and use it. I sure would hate to think that I wanted to be an astronaut when I grew up, never research it and find out, when I went to college, that I had to know physics inside and out!

Research Paper Next year you really get a say in the direction of your education, how will you know what classes to take if you don’t know what will help you???

Research Requirements Annotated Bibliography Page (MLA) You should utilize noodletools Parenthetical Citations Included in your paper You should cite more than necessary rather than the other way around

Annotated Bibliography Annotated means that you will thoroughly evaluate each and every source that you use. 3 requirements for each annotation What was quality/ good about it Is it current, specifically about AK or you exact career, etc What was it lacking Old info, written about Guam, etc. What info did you use from there?

Parenthetical Citations Take the first word from each source on the bibliography page Hansen, Lars. (2008). How to be an Awesome teacher. The Book about What’s Up. …Most teachers prefer to start school at 6 am in order to end school early (Hansen).

Parenthetical Citation What if Mr. Hansen wrote multiple papers that you used? Or what if you have two different authors with the same name? In text parenthesis should include name and year of publication: (Hansen, 2008).

Parenthetical Citations Ok, Ok, What if two Hansens both wrote a paper in 2008?

Parenthetical Citations Seriously, there’s more...? Yes, lets talk page numbers You do not have to include a page number in the parenthetical citation (Hansen, 21), but YOU SHOULD IF PAGE NUMBERS ARE AVAILABLE!

Review 1 What do I mean when I say list what is good about a resource in the annotated bibliography?

Review 2 Based on Mr. Hansen’s paper, is the following parenthetical citation correct? If it is not correct, write it correctly. Hansen, Lars. (2008). How to be an Awesome teacher. The Book about What’s Up. Blablagoodinfo, things to be used (Hansen, Book)

Review 3 When/ Why would you list more than the author’s name in the parenthetical cite?

Bibliography Page Works Cited is sometimes referred to as References. The terms mean the same thing. Each is an alphabetical list of works cited, or works to which you have made reference. Works Cited is generally used when citing sources using MLA (Modern Language Association) style References is used when citing sources using APA (American Psychological Association) style.

Cont. Works Cited and Bibliography are not the same. In Works Cited you only list items you have actually cited. In a Bibliography you list all of the material you have consulted in preparing your essay whether or not you have actually cited the work. For our research paper, we will create a full MLA Bibliography Mr. Short will come in Friday to show you a super easy way to do this

Entries in Works Cited, References, or Bibliography are put in alphabetical order by last names of authors, editors, translators, etc. or by first words of titles. If the first word of the title is "The", "A", or "An", and the word is being used as an article, e.g., in the title: The Little Book of Irish Clans, the entry is placed under "Little" and the article "The" is ignored. In the title: A Is for Apple, however, the entry is placed under A since A is used as a noun and not as an article in this case.

Sometimes the article "The" is used as part of the name of a company or magazine or journal for emphasis, e.g., The Champ, or The Sports Network. For Internet sites, use the URL as a guide. If "theyellowpages" is used in the URL, treat "The" as part of the title, and list "The Yellow Pages" alphabetically under "The". If "edge" and not "theedge" is used in the URL, list the magazine title "The Edge" under "Edge" and treat "The" as an article and ignore it.

Example, in text The Many Facets of Taboo             The World Book Encyclopedia defines Taboo as "an action, object, person, or place forbidden by law or culture" (Dundes).             As pointed out in the Occultopedia, another word for taboo is "tabu" a Polynesian word meaning that which is banned. The Occultopedia also points out that taboo is found among many other cultures including the ancient Egyptians, Jews and others (Taboo).              Mary Douglas has analyzed the many facets and interpretations of taboos across various cultures. In her view, taboos could be considered a kind of "brain-washing" (2549) as they are transmitted to individuals along with an entire cultural system made up of a pattern of values and norms.              In reference to Freak Shows at circuses, an interesting observation is made that people who possess uncommon features and who willingly go out in public to display such oddities to onlookers are acting as "modern-day taboo breakers" by crossing the "final boundary between societal acceptance and ostracism." (Rothenberg).              In traditional British East Africa, between the time of puberty and marriage, a young Akamba girl must maintain an avoidance relationship with her own father (Freud, 2010).             In your Bibliography, Works Cited, or References page, you must include all of the parenthetical citations.

We’re almost finished…a few last notes The parenthetical citations Must be placed in parenthesis The author’s name must be capitalized Titles of articles, books, etc must be CAPS The citations will go in front of the end mark (Hansen). Do not bold, italicize, or place citations in special fonts or sizes

When do I need to cite info? More often than not When an “official” confirms something you thought they would say When an “official” provides new information
