Using MLA Format


Here's a sample research paper:  http://www.dianahacker.com/resdoc/humanities/pdf/dalypaper.pdf

 

Submitting Papers

Papers are due at the beginning of class on the due date.

You need to print out your assignments before class begins or I will deduct points.

Questions about MLA-- excellent site! Read here:   The Nuts and Bolts of College Writing and here MLA citing and Works Cited

How to format your paper

Leave 1 inch margins on all sides of the paper.

Proofread carefully; use white-out as necessary.

Put page numbers on each page of the text (Handwriting the page numbers is fine)

Staple paper in the upper left-hand corner; do not insert in a folder.

Use a 12 point Arial, Courier, Times New Roman, or Bookman

How your first page should look (with your name in there, of course)
