- Format the flyer with fonts, font styles and effects, font colors, borders, shading, clip art, and any other formats you think help make the flyer attractive and eye-catching.
Change the list of activities into a bulleted list.
Format the flyer so that the document is just one page long.
Save the flyer as Carnival.docx and as part of the zipped folder to be uploaded to iBoard.
2. Research Paper Citations:
- Use your favorite search engine to search the Web for information on the APA guidelines for formatting a research report. Use the keywords APA Style and research paper format to conduct your search.
Look for information on the proper formatting for the following aspects of a research paper: paper size, margins, title page or first page of the report, line spacing, paragraph indentation, and page numbers. Also find information on proper formatting for citations and a works cited page. Print the information you find.
Start Word, open the file WD D-6.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD D-Research Paper. Using the information you learned, format this document as a research report.
Adjust the margins, set the line spacing, and add page numbers to the document in the format recommended by the APA. Use The Maori History of New Zealand as the title for your sample report, use your name as the author name, and use the name of the course you are enrolled in currently as well as the instructor’s name for that course. Make sure to format the title page exactly as the APA style dictates.
Format the remaining text as the body of the research report. Indent the first line of each paragraph rather than use quadruple spacing between paragraphs.
Create three sources, insert three citations in the document—a book, a journal article, and a Web site—and create a works cited page, following APA style. If necessary, edit the format of the citations and works cited page to conform to APA format. (Note: For this practice document, you are allowed to make up sources. Never make up sources for real research papers.)
Save the document, submit a copy to your instructor, close the document, then exit Word.
