Week 11 - Style Guide

Due Date: Monday, December 5, 2011

This week you are to create a style guide for the citation that you and your advisor have agreed that you will use for all the work related to your paper.  You should have two copies of this style guide made, one for your advisor and one for you.  You will turn the one for you in to me next Monday with your rubric for me to grade. 

Along with your style guide you should also complete an intext sampler.  This is to show me your comprehension of your citation style.  Your intext sampler should include samples of 7 different sources as well as a summary of what a bibliography page looks like. 

Your advisor should sign that they agree with your chosen style and go over your intext sampler with you.  You will turn in, on Monday, your style guide, the intext sampler and your rubric. 

Remember that Perdue OWL (Online Writing Lab) is a great resource.  They have style guides for all three citation styles; they are long, and there are shorter ones out there, but this may be a good place for you to start.  http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/

Please, oh please, remember that site is a website and cite is the verb of citation.
