Your research must include at least 4 articles or books. That is, websites can be very helpful and informative, but your final paper must include full articles (whether from the internet or elsewhere) or books on the topic. Sources should be reputable and consistent with what you learned in the module as well as other sources.

However, if a direct quotation enhances your paper, follow these guidelines:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">You must include a page number with a direct quotation. This is mandatory: (Atwin, 204, p219).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For direct quotations fewer than 40 words, treat it as a short quotation that is enclosed with quotation marks. Place the parenthetical citation immediately after the quotation or at the end of the sentence.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For direct quotations that are 40 words are more: treat it as a block quotation. Do not use quotation marks. Start a block quotation on a new line and Indent the block 0.5 inches from the left margin.&nbsp; Cite the source in parentheses after the quotation\u2019s final punctuation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Using direct quotations from websites that do not provide page numbers: It is always the best practice of writing to include a page number for a direct quotation, but if this is not possible to find, either use another source, or find another way of providing a means to locate this source. Examples: Provide a section name: (Dillon &amp; Thomas, 2019, Arthritis Section). Provide a paragraph number: (Dillon &amp; Thomas, 2019, para 2).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Writing references at the end of your paper: This page is essential for providing and identifying all sources that were used in the paper. &nbsp; There are four main elements when a writer lists entries on the \u201cReferences\u201d page: 1) The author\/authors. 2) The date of publication. 3) The title of the work. 4) The place to retrieve this work.

If a DOI is available, it is used in place of a URL. The DOI is frequently found on the first page of an online source. APA generally cites author, date, page title, site title, available page numbers, and a URL (Uniform Resource Indicator) or DOI. The date of access should also be included if there is no publication or date.&nbsp; If the page&#8217;s author is not listed, start with the title instead.
