Elective #2 Citing Internet Sources

 

http://www.thewritesource.com/mla.htm

 

I would use the above website with my students because I thought that it had the most information on the different kinds of websites that you may have to cite.  I liked how it had many different sample citations that would be easy to use for students to use as a model.

            I would use this site also because not only does it have a variety of models on how to cite a website – it also answers the question about why it is so important for students to cite their work.

            I didn’t know that you had to cite sounds, images, videos.  This website source is the place that a teacher would go to show the students how to do this.  The students (and actually me too!) will have to learn this so when we add pizzazz to our projects, we won’t be stealing anything.

            If I had to teach APA style, I would use this website, again because it has a variety of models that the students need as a reference.  Out of all the websites about the APA style, this one had the most information.
