When I demonstrated this lesson to my graduate level class, many of them were surprised to learn about this function as they had no idea it even existed. By teaching early college students some basic functions in Word, such as the APA citation function in the Reference ribbon, they will be empowered to effectively use this tool they are given, create ascetically strong papers, and go forward into the workplace (not to mention other classes) with confidence about a common software they’ll be expected to know how to use. Contrary to popular belief, digital natives are not familiar with many functions of Microsoft Word, so oftentimes their documents are messy and clunky. This entry is copy and pasted from a Word document I created to walk hypothetical ENG 221 students through the citation functions in Microsoft Word.
