Week 7 discussion advance writing

Discussion Topic 3 – APA Format Practice

These are totally mixed up citations from an annotated bibliography I wrote in graduate school about benefits – especially educational benefits, for veterans.  I was especially interested in this subject as my then 28 year old son had just received his honorable medical discharge from the U.S. Army.  The research topic was: What material is available to help veterans enter and be successful in post-secondary education?  

At the end of this week I will post the entire annotated bibliography.  Those of you in the military will find it especially interesting. The annotated bibliography will have every citation in proper APA format and will have a brief description of the article.  Keep in mind, however, that the annotated bibliography was written in the fall of 2011, so much more current literature is available.  

WHAT YOU ARE TO DO: Using the reference materials from class, the Effective Writing Center, the UMUC library, or the APA Style Manual, 6th edition, retype these citations in proper APA format.  Be sure that the reference list is in alphabetical order by the author’s last name.  I will be looking for something like this:

Last Name, First Initial. (Year of publication).  Title of article using correct capitalization. Periodicial in which the article appeared.  Exact date of publication (if available), volume number, issue number.  Retrieved from: full URL.  If a doi is available, that goes at the end.
