Here is the information from the handout on the expectations for citing your sources.

Order of importance:  1) author  2) article name  3) book, website, journal or magazine  4) publisher  5)date  6) page number


Quotations are only needed if the wording is particularly interesting or crucial.  Otherwise, it is best to paraphrase.  You are required to have at least 2 sources of information which utilize in in-text citations and are included on a work cited page.  This information should support your research hypothesis.
