Seminar Options

In this unit’s Seminar, you will discuss the importance of reliable sources and how to evaluate research through critical analysis. Furthermore, you will also review examples of APA citation format and your instructor will explain the basics of this form of documenting sources in your writing. It would be a good idea to review the Writing Center’s resources on APA citation prior to Seminar so that you can ask questions about any confusing points.
