For the interdisciplinary English-science final research project, you will not receive direct instruction on APA Style citation formatting, but you are expected to use parenthetical, in-text citations appropriately and generate a reference list. The Purdue OWL Online Writing Lab provides easy-to-follow directions for APA citations. You are welcome to come after-school for an extra help session to have the teacher check over your citations and/or ask any questions you may have. Since there will be no direct instruction for this assignment, grading will not be strict. However, the reference list and parenthetical citations should reflect a genuine effort at accuracy. The most applicable formats are outlined and modeled below for convenience. Refer to the website for a more in-depth "How To."
