Content that comes from an outside source should be given a citation. Please include the last author's name in the text or in parentheses after the content, and then link that name to your original source. If your source was not electronic, then include the page number with the author's name. I will request a Works Cited page on a one-on-one basis, if the need arises.

For the purpose of this assignment...


Images fall into two categories:
  1. Just for visual enhancement. No citation. Example: a picture of the cover of your book or of your author.
  2. For informational purposes. Citation, same as above--If necessary, replace the author with the appropriate creator. Example: A graph or map or newspaper photo.

Here's how these citations look:

A key theme in Of Mice and Men is the importance of remaining connected to each other. Robert Heinlein, a Science Fiction writer, echoes this theme in his "This I Believe" essay about being neighborly.

One trait of Steinbeck as an author is his expolration of "human beings [as] biologically and culturally connected to the universe and [the use of] human will to blend past and future" (Lewis).
