00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,400
>> Hello. This screencast

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,680
will show you
how to create

3
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,970
an APA formatted
reference page for

4
00:00:06,970 --> 00:00:10,805
your final manuscript
in our class.

5
00:00:10,805 --> 00:00:13,920
So APA manual came

6
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,180
out with the seventh
edition in 2019,

7
00:00:16,180 --> 00:00:17,300
and so we will follow

8
00:00:17,300 --> 00:00:20,720
the seventh edition rules.

9
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,105
They don't recommend using

10
00:00:24,105 --> 00:00:28,460
any serif fonts like
Times New Roman anymore,

11
00:00:28,460 --> 00:00:30,890
so we want to use
something sans serif.

12
00:00:30,890 --> 00:00:34,535
I like Calibri. You
could also use Aerial.

13
00:00:34,535 --> 00:00:37,480
But anyway. So you need to

14
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:39,840
create an APA style
reference page.

15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,220
You want to start with

16
00:00:41,220 --> 00:00:43,420
the heading, which
is references.

17
00:00:43,420 --> 00:00:45,280
This heading will be bold

18
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,340
and centered on the page.

19
00:00:47,340 --> 00:00:48,560
And notice how I did that,

20
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,010
I just typed it and

21
00:00:50,010 --> 00:00:52,650
then I selected
bold and center.

22
00:00:52,650 --> 00:00:54,180
And now my references

23
00:00:54,180 --> 00:00:55,790
are centered on the page.

24
00:00:55,790 --> 00:00:58,020
Now notice that
the next line

25
00:00:58,020 --> 00:00:59,480
is also centered
on the page,

26
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:00,500
which I don't want.

27
00:01:00,500 --> 00:01:02,280
To fix that, just go over

28
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,220
here and do
your line left,

29
00:01:05,220 --> 00:01:06,860
and you will be started

30
00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:10,020
over at a one inch margin.

31
00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:11,840
Make sure that you're
set at the default

32
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,000
with one inch
margins all around.

33
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,620
I'll show you
how to make sure

34
00:01:15,620 --> 00:01:17,240
that you have
that in a second.

35
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,900
So then just go ahead and

36
00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:21,490
start typing
your references.

37
00:01:21,490 --> 00:01:25,730
So you can either
type by hand.

38
00:01:25,730 --> 00:01:27,940
I could type
something like,

39
00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:29,220
let's see, you
want to make

40
00:01:29,220 --> 00:01:30,595
sure the bold is off.

41
00:01:30,595 --> 00:01:34,120
So we could do
Oswald, B. B.

42
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,680
Let's see, recent paper.

43
00:01:40,260 --> 00:01:41,560
And I don't know,

44
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,130
I just make up
some names here.

45
00:01:44,130 --> 00:01:49,425
We'll have maybe
a 2019 paper,

46
00:01:49,425 --> 00:01:54,870
the effects of PSY 294

47
00:01:54,870 --> 00:01:59,870
on stress in
college students.

48
00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:02,070
And let's say that
got published

49
00:02:02,070 --> 00:02:06,105
in Teaching of
Psychology Journal,

50
00:02:06,105 --> 00:02:10,695
and that might be
Volume 113 Issue 2,

51
00:02:10,695 --> 00:02:19,025
pages 24 to,
let's say, 29.

52
00:02:19,025 --> 00:02:22,270
So there is an APA
style reference.

53
00:02:22,270 --> 00:02:24,550
Notice there's a few
things wrong with it.

54
00:02:24,550 --> 00:02:28,310
I need to
italicize this and

55
00:02:28,310 --> 00:02:31,560
this and then I also need

56
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,580
to double space everything

57
00:02:33,580 --> 00:02:36,245
and use hanging
paragraph indent.

58
00:02:36,245 --> 00:02:39,595
It also took me quite
a while to do that.

59
00:02:39,595 --> 00:02:44,325
You can go ahead
and copy paste.

60
00:02:44,325 --> 00:02:46,290
Sorry, I didn't
mean to do that.

61
00:02:46,290 --> 00:02:49,185
From the site function,

62
00:02:49,185 --> 00:02:52,040
I'm just going to
do an example here,

63
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,500
and I will copy paste into

64
00:02:55,500 --> 00:03:00,195
my new document and
that will show up.

65
00:03:00,195 --> 00:03:03,370
Now notice here I
have copy pasted.

66
00:03:03,370 --> 00:03:05,150
It's out of
alphabetical order,

67
00:03:05,150 --> 00:03:06,710
so I want to drag
that around and

68
00:03:06,710 --> 00:03:08,930
make sure everything's
in alphabetical order.

69
00:03:08,930 --> 00:03:13,450
I can add some more
references to my list.

70
00:03:13,450 --> 00:03:15,110
Let me grab a couple

71
00:03:15,110 --> 00:03:17,045
more here through
copy paste.

72
00:03:17,045 --> 00:03:18,810
Where you, again, might be

73
00:03:18,810 --> 00:03:20,410
copy pasting
these are out of

74
00:03:20,410 --> 00:03:24,310
the site function in
the library database,

75
00:03:24,310 --> 00:03:27,510
which is another video
that is provided

76
00:03:27,510 --> 00:03:30,390
through our embedded
librarian on Canvas.

77
00:03:30,390 --> 00:03:31,570
So make sure you

78
00:03:31,570 --> 00:03:32,350
check that out if

79
00:03:32,350 --> 00:03:33,970
you don't know
how to do it.

80
00:03:33,970 --> 00:03:36,690
And notice that now
these are better and

81
00:03:36,690 --> 00:03:39,470
that the proper things
are italicized.

82
00:03:39,470 --> 00:03:40,965
I have the doi.org

83
00:03:40,965 --> 00:03:43,025
included, things
like that,

84
00:03:43,025 --> 00:03:45,150
but I still have
a mistake in

85
00:03:45,150 --> 00:03:46,250
the final format and

86
00:03:46,250 --> 00:03:47,870
nothing is double spaced.

87
00:03:47,870 --> 00:03:49,450
This last one doesn't use

88
00:03:49,450 --> 00:03:51,200
hanging paragraph
and all that stuff.

89
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:52,465
So how do I fix that?

90
00:03:52,465 --> 00:03:54,510
The easiest way
to fix that is

91
00:03:54,510 --> 00:03:58,490
to come over here.
Do select all.

92
00:03:58,490 --> 00:04:01,030
Click this paragraph.

93
00:04:01,030 --> 00:04:04,310
Make sure that
your spacing is

94
00:04:04,310 --> 00:04:06,410
before set to zero and

95
00:04:06,410 --> 00:04:09,090
after is also set to zero.

96
00:04:09,090 --> 00:04:12,950
Make sure that your
line spacing is double.

97
00:04:12,950 --> 00:04:15,740
And then click Okay.

98
00:04:15,740 --> 00:04:18,840
Now, that helped
everything on the page,

99
00:04:18,840 --> 00:04:22,060
including the title
to be double spaced.

100
00:04:22,060 --> 00:04:25,660
But how do I get these
nice fancy indents?

101
00:04:25,660 --> 00:04:27,220
You don't want to indent.

102
00:04:27,220 --> 00:04:29,420
You want to leave

103
00:04:29,420 --> 00:04:32,225
now the word
references out of it.

104
00:04:32,225 --> 00:04:35,740
Just select all of
your references now,

105
00:04:35,740 --> 00:04:38,000
and let me
scooch this down

106
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,050
and make sure you
can see everything.

107
00:04:41,050 --> 00:04:43,285
This isn't letting
me do that.

108
00:04:43,285 --> 00:04:44,400
Hold on. I'll go

109
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,880
back up so you can
see what I'm doing.

110
00:04:49,220 --> 00:04:51,910
So I have everything
selected.

111
00:04:51,910 --> 00:04:52,650
I'm going to click

112
00:04:52,650 --> 00:04:54,710
this little paragraph
line again.

113
00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:56,750
And now here I want to use

114
00:04:56,750 --> 00:05:00,610
the special function and
just select hanging.

115
00:05:00,930 --> 00:05:04,670
Now, it almost worked
but not perfectly.

116
00:05:04,670 --> 00:05:06,345
Look at how I got this.

117
00:05:06,345 --> 00:05:07,630
These other guys look

118
00:05:07,630 --> 00:05:09,490
great, mine looks wonky.

119
00:05:09,490 --> 00:05:11,470
What I'm going to
do to fix that is

120
00:05:11,470 --> 00:05:14,130
just delete mine back up

121
00:05:14,130 --> 00:05:15,450
to the space before

122
00:05:15,450 --> 00:05:17,530
and hit Enter and
now everything

123
00:05:17,530 --> 00:05:19,290
is perfectly lined up.

124
00:05:19,290 --> 00:05:23,950
If you want to
check your margins,

125
00:05:23,950 --> 00:05:26,470
you can just go up
here and click Layout,

126
00:05:26,470 --> 00:05:29,930
Margins, and see
what's selected,

127
00:05:29,930 --> 00:05:31,050
normal is selected,

128
00:05:31,050 --> 00:05:31,770
which is putting

129
00:05:31,770 --> 00:05:33,590
the one inch
margins all around.

130
00:05:33,590 --> 00:05:35,210
That's what you want.

131
00:05:35,210 --> 00:05:37,530
The last thing if
you don't know,

132
00:05:37,530 --> 00:05:39,710
you'll see this in
another screencast

133
00:05:39,710 --> 00:05:42,910
is you know in APA format,
you need a header.

134
00:05:42,910 --> 00:05:43,630
How do you get

135
00:05:43,630 --> 00:05:46,130
your header and
your page number?

136
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,075
I will show you
real quick.

137
00:05:50,075 --> 00:05:54,500
If running ahead of
paper is your header,

138
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:56,300
just double click up

139
00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:57,240
at the top of the page

140
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,160
is how I got that

141
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,660
and type in, in all
caps what you want.

142
00:06:01,660 --> 00:06:05,120
Then tab over two spots

143
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,140
and insert your
page number

144
00:06:07,140 --> 00:06:09,045
in current position.

145
00:06:09,045 --> 00:06:12,345
And that's all
you need to do.

146
00:06:12,345 --> 00:06:14,470
Then double click
anywhere outside of it,

147
00:06:14,470 --> 00:06:16,230
and now you'll
have a header,

148
00:06:16,230 --> 00:06:17,350
which you don't need yet,

149
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:19,110
but you will
need eventually,

150
00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:21,370
and you have your fully

151
00:06:21,370 --> 00:06:23,100
formatted reference page.

152
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:26,475
Don't forget to
click File, Save,

153
00:06:26,475 --> 00:06:28,410
and save it somewhere to

154
00:06:28,410 --> 00:06:33,190
your computer
so you have it.

155
00:06:33,190 --> 00:06:37,170
As always, email if you
have any questions.
