References

Hello everyone, this is week four and we are still going strong. I have found our seminars to be very interesting. I have also found out things I did not know, like writing in the passive voice is acceptable.
Don't forget when typing the reference page that the references go in alphabetical order according to the author's last name. Indent all lines after the first one. I have turned in papers without doing this and lost 2 points off of a perfect paper for not having the references in alphabetical order!!!! I just wanted to remind everyone about these two important points.
We have to give credit to the author if we use any ideas from their work. It is very important to do this and to be honest in your writing so that is is original work. If someone were to use my words without citing them, I would have to confront the person and make sure that the person that received the work also knew it was originally mine.
I hope everyone has another great week!
