This week, you will complete Part 3 of your course project. For this portion of your project, you will create a "working" reference slide using APA to format your sources.
You must use credible outside research to support your ideas.
What sources can be considered as credible?
- research articles written and peer-reviewed
- websites registered by government and educational institutions (.gov, .edu)
- academic databases
- materials from Google Scholar
What sources should be avoided?
- out-of-date materials
- posts from social networks (i.e. Facebook)
- blogs
- research articles without citations
Wikipedia can never be considered as a reliable source of information since it can be edited by anyone (Therefore it is an example of a website that isn't credible). However, it can be used when you are first trying to understand the topic. Moreover, there are lots of further links and references that can be useful when doing research or writing academic papers.
Instructions
You are required to utilize and list a minimum of three sources. You should use APA citation. Here are links to the Purdue OWL and the ECPI LibGuide websites to help you with formatting.
