Allyson Gometz

 You must give credit to any author if you quote, paraphrase, or even summarize their ideas.  In your slides, you must give in-text citations.  You must also provide a Works Cited page.

 To give an in-text citation, you simply put the author’s last name and the page number in parenthesis. ◦ Put the punctuation after the parentheses. ◦ Like this (Gometz 3).  What if there is no author? ◦ You should probably re-evaluate your source if there is no author. However, if you are sure that it is a credible source, you can put a shortened version of the titles in the parentheses. ◦ Like this (“MLA” 3).  What if there is no page number? ◦ That’s ok. Just leave it off. ◦ Like this (Gometz).

 At the end of the work, you must add much more information. Organize this alphabetically.  There are different ways to cite each kind of source.

 Lastname, Firstname. "Title of Article." Title of Journal Volume.Issue (Year): pages. Medium of publication.  Bagchi, Alaknanda. "Conflicting Nationalisms: The Voice of the Subaltern in Mahasweta Devi's Bashai Tudu." Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature 15.1 (1996): Print.  Langhamer, Claire. “Love and Courtship in Mid- Twentieth-Century England.” Historical Journal 50.1 (2007): ProQuest. Web. 27 May 2009.

 Lastname, Firstname. “Title.” Title of Overall Website. Publisher, date. Web. Date accessed.  "How to Make Vegetarian Chili." eHow. Demand Media, Inc., n.d. Web. 24 Feb  Use n.p. if there is no publisher and n.d. if there is no date. This is very common.

 Lastname, Firstname. Title of Book. City of Publication: Publisher, Year of Publication. Medium of Publication.  Gleick, James. Chaos: Making a New Science. New York: Penguin, Print.

 If there is more than one author, the first author is listed with the “lastname, firstname” format, and all others are listed in “firstname lastname” format.  Gillespie, Paula, and Neal Lerner. The Allyn and Bacon Guide to Peer Tutoring. Boston: Allyn, Print.  If there are more than three authors, you may put “et al.” after the first given author (it means “and others”).  Wysocki, Anne Frances, et al. Writing New Media: Theory and Applications for Expanding the Teaching of Composition. Logan: Utah State UP, Print.
