Did you know you can submit a draft paper for feedback to the KU Writing Center?
When you “Submit a Paper for Feedback,” one of the WC tutors will review it and give you some valuable suggestions to help you improve your writing. This is especially useful during the draft stage of the writing process. The tutor will return your paper (with clear, useful suggestions) within 48-72 hours.
Writing Center – Tutor Review
• Papers must be submitted as an attached Word .doc, .docx, or .rtf file. Failure to do this will delay timely feedback.

Recording Your Sources.
APA Citation Style
Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th ed. (hence, “APA”)
There are several Internet sources for assistance with APA style for various types of publications and even programs for putting a citation into APA format.
APA Citation Style• Academic Journal – 2 authors & a DOI (Digital object
identifier)Sagarin, B. J., & Lawler-Sagarin, K. A. (2005). Critically evaluating competing theories: An exercise based on the Kitty Genovese murder. Teaching of Psychology, 32(3), 167–169. doi:10.1207/s15328023top3203_8
The “doi” is a unique number that tags the article in the library online database. If you retrieve from a database with a DOI, include the doi at the end of the citation as shown above. If there is no doi, use online web address. If article is not online, then there will be no online information at the end of the citation.
APA Citation Style
When you have retrieved and viewed a source, such as a journal article, electronically, you indicated that following the main citation information with “Retrieved from…” including the date you viewed it.
This verifies how/where you found your source. If you viewed it in an electronic database you were not physically paging through the actual journal. It is similar to citing to something viewed on microfiche.
APA Citation StyleHere is an example (from Webster Univ. Lib., library.webster.edu, 8/22/2010):
APA Citation StyleCan you put the following information into a
correct APA citation?An article entitled “Internet relationships and
their impact on primary relationships” written by H. Underwood and B. Findlay. The article is published in 2004 in an academic journal called “Behaviour Change,” vol. 21, second issue, on pages 127 to 140. Underwood is first-named writer.
Jot down on a piece of paper or on your computer how the above source should be written out in APA format.
APA Citation Style
Underwood, H., & Findlay, B. (2004). Internet relationships and their impact on
primaryrelationships. Behaviour Change, 21(2), 127-140.
APA Citation StyleThere are programs for APA citation format:MS Word has an add-on plug-in – I have not used it;Online: http://citationmachine.net
This is a free citation assistant. Click on APA and then click on the type of source (book, journal article, etc.) and a fill-in form comes up. Fill in the form with your source information and it will write the APA citation for you to block and copy.
Free download: http://scholarword.com/apa.htm I have not tried this, but have reviewed its claims.
APA Citation Style WARNING!
These programs are time-savers, to help relieve the burden.
They are not guarantees of correct/perfect work. That is your job.
ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY
It really is this easy!
Annotated BibliographyCitation in proper APA format.Summary paragraph about the
information the source provides. Several Annotated Bibliography
help sources are posted in the Courseroom Webliography.
Annotated BibliographyExample (from U. of Central FL, library.ucf.edu):
Kim, H.J., McCahon, C., & Miller, J. (2003). Assessing service quality in Korean
casual-dining restaurants using DINESERV. Journal of Foodservice Business
Research. 6(1). 67-87.
This study applies DINESERV (a quality service tool originally developed by
Knutson, Patton, and Stevens) to Korean casual-dining restaurants. The
authors (professors of hospitality, management, and dietetics, respectively)
successfully demonstrate that DINESERV is a valid instrument
measuring service quality in Korea. Since previous studies using DINESERV
had been based only in the US or the UK, this study has important
implications for anyone interested in the international dimensions of
quality.
Annotated BibliographyNote:1. Double spaced.2. Second and subsequent lines of citation
and the annotation block are indented. Annotation indented further than the additional lines of the citation.
3. Annotation summarizes information source provides and includes relevance to your research.
Annotated Bibliography
Example (from U. of Central FL, library.ucf.edu):Lee, S., Kim, Y., Hemmington, N., & Yun, D. (2004). Competitive service
quality improvement (CSQI): A case study in the fast-food industry.
Food Service Technoloy, 4, 75-84.
In this highly technical paper, three industrial engineering professors in
Korea and one services management profess in the UK discuss the
mathematical limitations of the popular SERVQUAL scales. Significantly,
they also aim to measure service quality in the fast-food industry, a
neglected area of study. Unfortunately, the paper’s sophisticated
analytical methods make it inaccessible to all but the most expert of
researchers.
