Monday

Today, I would like to do a few things: 1) Discuss MLA Format; and 2) Discuss introductory paragraphs, and 3) give you some time to work on essays

If you need help with MLA Format: PURDUE.EDU Owl  
In-text citations, make sure you have the author's last name and page number if there is a page number. Remember the period goes outside of the (      ). If there is no author then give the first few words of the title of the article or website. Example: ("The Harms of Plagiarism").  
In-text citation.
1) All you need is the authors last night (Fielding)
2) If you do not have an author put the first three words of the title or the website followed by ... ("The Little Boy..."). Titles of articles or webpages are in quotations titles of books or websites are in italics.
3) No matter if you are summarizing information or quoting information you need to cite the source if it is not your original thought.
