In this APA paper, as in week one APA paper, here is ANOTHER (repeat) link to the APA guidelines so that you can use the five basic components of an APA style document per the American Psychological Association Writing Style Manual or see the Purdue OWL APA guidelines at this link:
https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/general_format.htmlLinks to an external site.
Here is short summary to prompt you to click the link above:
GENERAL APA GUIDELINES
Your paper should be typed and double-spaced on standard-sized paper (8.5″ x 11″), with 1″ margins on all sides.
Include a page header (also known as the “running head”) at the top of every page.
For a professional paper, this includes your paper title and the page number:
Type “TITLE OF YOUR PAPER” in the header flush left using all capital letters. The running head is a shortened version of your paper’s title and cannot exceed 50 characters including spacing and punctuation.
The Running head is NOT required for this particular course. HOWEVER, IF you feel like you may one day want to write APA papers professionally/for publication, please consider practicing writing a Full Running Head into your papers. I will give you feed back as needed and give you opportunities to make any required adjustments.
For a Student Paper, “the running head” includes ONLY the page number.
We will be using THIS specific format for the course, UNLESS you want to practice for writing APA professionally. I will be glad to coach you through your practicing of this if you wish to eventually write APA style for professional publication.
To create a page header/running head for a Student APA Paper Simply insert page numbers flush right on each page beginning with the Title Page, through the paper to the References page.
Title Page is “1”,
Abstract is “2”
First page of Main Body is “3”
and so on….
Write as many pages as is required for you to amply cover the main topics of each TWO-Chapter reading for the week.
FONT
The 7th edition of the APA Publication Manual requires that the chosen font be accessible (i.e., legible) to all readers and that it be used consistently throughout the paper. It acknowledges that many font choices are legitimate, and it advises writers to check with their publishers, instructors, or institutions for guidance in cases of uncertainty.
While the APA Manual does not specify a single font or set of fonts for professional writing, it does recommend a few fonts that are widely available. These include sans serif fonts such as 11-point Calibri, 11-point Arial, and 10-point Lucida Sans Unicode as well as serif fonts such as 12-point Times New Roman, 11-point Georgia, 10-point Computer Modern.
Major Paper Sections
Your essay should include four major sections:
Title Page, Abstract, Main Body, and References.
