Step-by-Step APA Format

What is APA Format? Why do we have to use it??? APA Format is used by individuals who study the social sciences. We are using this format right now due to our research for our Science Fair projects. In order to complete the written essay correctly, we need to make sure we do a few things. ..

First thing…. Make sure your paper is TYPED in the following format: Size 12 Font on the ENTIRE document— even your name. Font Style: Times New Roman (ONLY) Double Spaced (Hold Ctrl+A, then Ctrl+2) 1” margins on top, bottom, left, right side of the document Must only be in BLACK INK

Creating a Reference List To create your Reference List, you need to make sure you have filled out the Bibliography Worksheet I gave you before we began writing our essays. You were to fill in all of the information you could find based on where you gathered your research from.

Creating Citations/ In-Text Citations Go to the following website: http://citationmachine.net/index2.php?reqstyl eid=2&newstyle=2&stylebox=2 Using your Bibliography Worksheet, begin creating citations. First, select what type of resource you have. Is it a book? Website? Magazine article? Select whichever it is.

Next… Begin filling in the areas that need filling in. To show you an example, I’m going to create a citation for the following website: http://kidshealth.org/kid/stay_healthy/food/ec oli.html As you can see, there is no specified author or a date when it was published. That’s alright though, leave those areas blank. What I DO have is the title of the webpage, and the URL…

The results… After inserting the information I do have and clicking “Make Citation,” I have the following citation: E.coli. (n.d.). Retrieved from http://kidshealth.org/kid/stay_healthy/f ood/ecoli.html And below that, the in-text citation of: ("E.coli," )

IMPORTANT Make sure that FOR EVERY CITATION you create, you COPY AND PASTE the citations AND in- text citations into a Word Document and SAVE IT IMMEDIATELY Otherwise you will lose all of the citations created and have to start all over again.

Continue to do this for EVERY resource you have. Again, make sure you C&P these citations AND in-text citations into a Word document and SAVE. You will need this for the next steps….

References Create a new word document Title this document References Make sure the document is in… Times New Roman (Font) 12 Point Font (Size) 1” Margins (all around) Black Ink

On the References page, do the following: Copy & Paste each citation you gathered but make sure you do each in ALPHABETICAL ORDER. If you have a citation that extends past two typed lines, TAB the second line to indent it.

On my TeacherWeb, I’ve uploaded an example Reference page… Refer to the following website: http://teacherweb.com/IL/MCCFullti meSchool/6th-7th-8th- English/photo8.aspx Note the margins and font/font size Also, it is placed in alphabetical order. You can explore the sites on the Reference page for yourself!
