In Lesson Three, you would learn about the APA and MLA citation methods, including their general format, in-text citation guidelines, and reference list or works cited page formatting. These citation methods help to give proper credit to the original sources and demonstrate integrity in academic writing.
To effectively use the citation method and avoid plagiarism, it is crucial to understand the specific rules and requirements of the chosen citation style. This includes correctly formatting in-text citations, references, and works cited pages, as well as properly attributing sources throughout your work. Paying attention to details such as author names, publication dates, titles, and page numbers are also important in order to provide accurate and complete citations.
By following the appropriate citation method consistently and accurately, you will be able to effectively avoid plagiarism and give proper credit to the original authors and sources that you reference in your work.
