APA Reference and Citation Worksheet
Use the Center for Writing Excellence’s Reference and Citation Generator (https://ecampus.phoenix.edu/secure/aapd/cwe/citation_generator/), located under the APA Information heading in the CWE’s Tutorials and Guides section, to generate references and citations for two articles from the University of Phoenix Library.
You can use two library sources that you chose for previous course assignments, if you still plan to use them in your final paper, or you can select two new sources that you have found in the library through your drafting process to use instead.
Step One: Create Citations
Example:
a. Use the generator to produce an APA-formatted reference for a source you will use in your paper. This source should be from the University Library. Paste the reference below.
Jones, D. P., & Snow, F. (2013). APA matters: A guide for the confused. Journal of Teaching Methods, 5(34), 5–9.
b. Paste the examples provided by the generator to show possible in-text citations for this reference.
1. Insert the paraphrased material (Jones & Snow, 2013).
2. Jones and Snow (2013) insert the paraphrased material.
3. According to Jones and Snow (2013), “insert the quotation” (p. 6).
