Citations

It is very important (and required) to state where you found the information that you use in any academic paper, PowerPoint/Slides, or other type of presentation.

You may use a direct quote from your information source (using quotation marks) or you may paraphrase the information (restate it in your own words.) In either case you must provide a brief indication in your text about the source (parenthetical citation) and a full citation in your list of works cited.

See the links below for examples of various types of cited materials.
