M1A1 References and Citations
Part 1 of 3. Evaluating references
In this section you will review a reference and describe why it does or does not follow APA style. Be thorough in your analysis to receive full points. NOTE: It is unnecessary to track down the original source to see if the information included is correct; assume the information included is factual, and only judge each reference by its adherence to APA (7th) style.
