Citations:
Giving credit to the
sources of your ideas is essential in academic work. Be sure to cite any direct
quotes or ideas that you have taken from a particular source. I suggest a
simple in-text citation form such as Levine and Zeros (1998 p. 32) with a
bibliography containing full information at the end of your paper, but you may
use footnotes or any other style that provides full bibliographic information.
