  1. Aim: How do we employ citations? DO NOW: Take out your note/bibliography cards. HW: Bring all research to the lab on Monday – downstairs lab.

  2. What is the difference between a “bibliography” and a “works-cited” page? A “bibliography” lists every source that you have read that you may or may not have included in your research paper, while a “works-cited” page acts as a reference sheet for in-text citations to alert the reader to the exact source of the research. Why do we use them? ETHICS: we give credit for intellectual property so as to avoid lawsuits later in life. Which will you use? A “works-cited” page

  3. There is logic, while obscure, for the works cited page. http://www.aresearchguide.com Works Cited Adams, Paul. "Furious Arafat Is Freed." Globe and Mail [Toronto]. 2 May 2002: A1. "Beginner Tip: Presenting Your Page with Style." NetMechanic. 13 Oct. 2002. <http://www.netmechanic.com/news/vol3/ beginner_no7.htm>. Collins, Ronald K.L., and David M. Skover.

  4. How do we link the works cited page to the research in the paper? In-text Citations In-text citations contain a small piece of information, usually the author’s last name and page number, which directs the reader to the entry on the works cited page. In-text citations MUST BE PRESENT for ALL research used in your report (every detail quoted or paraphrased must have an in-text citation).

  5. In-text citation What do in-text citations look like: Short, direct quotes. In-text citation In-text citation "The local politicians believe welfare [. . .] should all be paid for through income taxes" (Stewart 1). "Africa is more than warlords and tyrants [. . .]." (De Villiers and Hirtle 15). "The child [Adam] was left miserably abandoned" (Price 206). “The child was also emotionally defeated” (207). Oliver concludes that "all communication industries [. . .] are moving rapidly toward exclusively digital technology" (24). In-text citation In-text citation

  6. What do in-text citations look like: A lengthy quote. There are several ideas about writing computer programs. One such idea is The key to writing a successful program is planning. Good programs do not just happen: they are the result of careful design and patience. [. . .]. Writing a program is like writing an essay: An overall theme is envisioned, an outline of major ideas is developed, each major idea is subdivided into several parts, and each part is developed using individual sentences (Lambert 15). In-text citation

  7. In-text citation What do in-text citations look like: Including the source in the your writing for a lengthy quote. In-text citation In their Introduction to Computer Science with C++, Lambert, Nance, and Naps stress that: The key to writing a successful program is planning. Good programs do not just happen: they are the result of careful design and patience. [. . .]. Writing a program is like writing an essay: An overall theme is envisioned, an outline of major ideas is developed, each major idea is subdivided into several parts, and each part is developed using individual sentences (15). In-text citation

  8. What if… What other contingencies may arise during your research report? Now is your chance to ask questions. Remember, there is some logic that dictates the order of a works cited page and in-text citations.
