For personal communications you need only to include an internal citation. HINT: Most of these exercises require sources unless otherwise specified. Reference the Penn State APA style guide found on the PAF 101 website. **All newspaper articles must be dated within the past six months.**Only attach an article if required by exercise directions. Whenever you attach an article, it must be directly behind the exercise in which it appears, and it must be clearly labeled with the exercise number and letter to which it pertains. Attach only the first page of the article unless otherwise stated. **Do not copy electronic articles into Word documents. Print them directly from the website or other source.**Unless otherwise stated, begin your answer directly after the colon.**Do not double space anywhere in your module, except for your reference page.**Anytime you take direct information from somewhere, you must internally cite the source, even if the exercise says no source is needed. If you fail to do so, you will receive a 0 on your module.**You must have a page break between each exercise. For each full exercise, start at the top of a new page.**Don’t use fancy internal citations. Follow this example at all times even though APA permits other formats: (Coplin, 2007, p. 4).**NEVER use international policies or sources in any module.** Remember to use quotation marks for any quote taken directly from a source.**Proofread your module to ensure there are no writing mistakes, including but not limited to:Missing or misplaced periodSpelling errorIncorrect word (e.g. “there” vs. “their”)Capitalization errorAn abbreviation that has not already been explainedPossession mistakesSentences that don’t make senseWhen using a quote that contains a quote within it, use apostrophes instead of quotations for the quote within itIncorrect use of numerals (spell out numbers under 10, “two”; use figures for 10 and above “16”)**Your paper must be secured with a staple or binder clip.
