. it's a good time to review this video was APA format and Scholarly writing this video is a continuation of the video one Seminary Writing and will provide eighty till Sunday expectations and formatting for all of your submitted work . earlier Seminary WritingMakes use of the variety of credible resources . in fact every Semitic paper will carry with it the expectation that we ended paper you have referenced in some manner outside credible sources . also these kind credible sources include text box . and there but you really be expected to bring the assignment text from your own personal study and journal articles personal correspondence section in any is . and Internet resources mare some wonderful Internet resources available such as Wesley sermons in the Webster's eighteen twenty eight dictionary . in order to accurately for traders source of the ideas here and words proper citations and references must be employed . reinstall the Wesley Seminary use it in all of these courses is APA you might be thinking what is APA and why should I care . well I APA stands for the American psychological Association and is an accepted and most common way to cite sources and academic paper . Scholarly in peer reviewed journals use APA typically you will be required to use APA at Wesley Seminary in all of your courses and APA ensure the accuracy of citations and protects against plagiarism . there's several online tools to assist you in APA format and one Heidi Li recommended source is the owl at pretty . an example of the page shown here Slide . another online resource is called the citation the machine or some the citation machine . I would strongly recommend becoming very familiar with either of these and perhaps concluding the hour for do as a bookmark . YouTube also provides a variety of videos to help you achieve APA formatting and whatever software you use . and initiates in these on my source is still being provided in the course materials a sample APA paper and in APA shortcuts document so that you can clearly see in the title for an anime that is expected . I understand that the Major Elements however in APA format in the elements that all unusual in that assignment education papers and integration papers must include our . I the page . I had . abstract headings throughout the content . alright friends page the and in text citations . we're going to take the time to go through one in each of these one by one . you . the title page . every paper even very short reflection papers must include a title page . please don't on the screen in example of a title . you can see in that it includes first header or as it's called on the title page of reading cat . it is at the top of the paper happenings from the top with in the header . there is that the early bird and the page number . a header should appear on every page of your paper . only the title page however includes the title Writing head from then on just the title paper and page number should be a part of the head . your software should carry the capability to automatically insert a header in every page of the paper . please consult your software tools for YouTube videos for assistance with this . the page also includes the title of your paper century . Title case B and double spaced about a third of the way down from the top of the paper . the title of your paper is followed by your name and then the title of the institution in this case Wesley Seminary . there's some professors who will also ask you to include the course Title Colleen an institution . the title page also mean include a disclaimer such is the one on this example . and that identifies the work as your original work again this is something professors often require . I would strongly encourage you to set up a template paper that you can copy and use repeatedly throughout the program . a template Title page that includes the standard tendered the title page with disclaimer . and from paper to paper the only thing the we need to change on the title page is the title of the cake . if paper the second case that occurs in the abstract . maybe something is not used in previous writing although it may not be required in every synonym assignment such as our brief response . it should be included in every application and integration paper . the abstract is not an introduction to your paper the common era . rather it is from a stand by your paper you right its last . after you've completed your entire paper and your conclusive conclusion which is the final paragraph of the paper . he proceeded to write the abstract a new windshield . give away the ending . you a reader should be able to identify the major elements of the year paper . conclusions from that you reached just reading the abstract . remember how I said in the earlier video and Seminary Writing that the expectation was that your paper would be concise . well now that you've been as concise as you possibly can in for five ten pages . take all of that any non hundred to a hundred and fifty words unlike will be what did you conclude one is the summation of the paper . the acceptance double space Block format which means there's no entire contents although in the body of the paper you must indent R us . and the word abstract is centered entire case at the top of the page you can see in the example . the extract is a stand alone page and it really is best used to live in for the break following it and preceding it in order to maintain this . the abstract as all the other pages does also include the header but in this instance you can see that it doesn't say Writing had just include the title of the cake . the body of the paper . instantly the third page of your paper and fall is the abstract . now I can references page number . also in the earlier video . and all of your Assignments CLEAN CLEAR suggested page number . I understand that when the professor asks for a paper to the teeth read four pages in length . they are talking about only the body of paper that I the page the abstract a reference to any A tendencies that you might have . don't how in the total page count of your paper . the body include the sheep can see in the . again it at the top of every page in the header is the same as it was shown on the outside . the body begins with the title of the paper center . later class . I'm sorry Title case and not gold but followed by an introductory paragraph or paragraphs . you know I include the word introduction hella however but definitely provide one . the body and paper should re cover the required elements of the assignment . the body of the condition also include . throughout that signify a change in focus a wonderful role from the is the assignment required elements to each . Serves as the honeymoon ended paper . very different levels of headings and your paper will include at least level one headings . these are bold centered and Title case I need you . it never will also include level two headings . they are sub headings to the main point or two level one heading . and level two headings are aligned laughed along and Title case for a full listing of heading to proper formatting you can see the Alec review or some the accompanying materials in your source material by now . references . paper unless you're paper also includes an appendix . the reference page directly follows the body of the page . should be for meditation can see on the slide again . a header with the title of the page number . the word reference its center . and Title case . it should be a standalone page . apart from the mud in the paper so again that will insert page break is helpful to use prior . and it should be entirely double spaced . each source that has been referenced in the paper either through direct financial expectation should be included . the sources of formatting in the painting to start with the first line flush left and the additional lines of the same source indent in the happenings taking turns out the opposite way . the format heart . note that even if you consult a source in the writing of your paper . you only include sources better actually referenced or mentioned in the paper itself . common source you will be using it up and the formatting for a buck is seen here on this site is author's last name common first initial period . parentheses publication date trek to Sees period . the title of the paper is an ice house . and it's lowercase accept for the first word and the first word if there happens to be calling him the title . although trite period . and the publication city . the State Colin . publishers May and Kerri Anne . you can also see examples . and art from periodic periodical for an article from an online source . the radio and the citations she an offer of example of a variety of different kinds of sources as well that you might writing to throughout the right of your paper . I would strongly suggest use . consult the for additional types of sources . citations . it's expected that every application and integration paper as well as most of your initial discussion forum posts will include a reference to an outside sorts or references to outside sources such as the text journal articles online sources . additional readings in research and perhaps even personality . one things to know about citations . citations are use when your borrowing some the else's words . here and borrowing Derr idea . always use the author's last name and the publication date . APA format and strongly and the ice is the publication date . and so always included when you mention the author's last day such as an example cat and her parentheses two thousand eleven friends to see suggested . and then what ever the idea was that the doctor suggested . if you provide and writes quote for you use the exact words or nearly the exact words . you'll also include the page number and an example would be the terror threat to seize two thousand eleven tragedy suggested comma and the quote Please include the page number and quote parentheses key period by parentheses period . or if he is a direct quote with out mentioning the author's first name . you it would be as appears on the slide with the others last name publication date him page number in the closing parentheses . for long quotes and obviously you would use a lot of these especially near shorter papers but from time to time you might use a quote that is over forty words . for many and it is different than the typical low . you do it of Block indent the entire quote is Block indent in the house an inch . and you don't use any quotation marks be doing include the page number author publication . . . plagiarism . the Golem APA formatting is to avoid the unintentional practice simply isn't . which is offering someone else's words or ideas at your own . beyond that general discussion there ten types of plagiarism identified that you want oh boy . they are shown on the side care . Wesley Seminary maintains a strict plagiarism policy . that'll be found in every soul that the state penalties for plagiarism include an automatic F on the assignment for a first offense . an automatic F in the course for a second offence . and dismissal from the program was the third of that . note that cloning is the act of submitting another person's word word for word at your own . but there are also other kinds of plagiarism that occurred . such as a written piece that contains significant portions of the text . only a single source with minor alterations . sometimes you will use a phrase from an author . but you will take out to eliminate or substitute a single word or a portion of the race . you still must cite . Ian you make money in their changes to ensure expectation and is still considered a direct citations . the out review will provide you insights into how to know the words of the at home and and . or words to the attic . you can see other examples such as the remix to recycle the hybrid the mashup etc on the types of plagiarism . please take time announcer read through that . . . APA format and told a joint reading clearly provide proper credit to credible sources and helping you achieve Scholarly writing . if you cannot use any formatting source previously . take awhile to get use to it at first it might feel like formatting the paper takes a whole lot longer than actually writing the content . thus the more you use APA format and the more familiar you will be come more naturally Elements will be any US be easy all you will find it .
