Formatting Papers for the APA Format


by Jeffrey M. Welch


I teach college classes in educational technology and history/social sciences methods for Brandman University. The educational field has standardized on the APA format, which is new for many students. Below you will find a screencast that I made with examples of how to write for APA. Really, it is more about avoiding common formatting errors.

For those looking for a quick how-to on the APA format this should be a helpful and concise resource.

As I mention in the screencast, for what I consider the best resource on the Internet for college writing, and especially APA, check out the Owl at Purdue.
