EAP 145 - HU, Weili - Week 1 3/3

Today, I reviewed APA.  APA is American Psychological association, and there are two reasons that people need to use APA system such as to tell reader where the information comes from and to give credit to the writers.  In APA, people should find author first.  People should put author's last name at the beginning and initial of their first name.  For example, the author's name is Weili Hu.  In APA, it should be Hu, W. L..  Then, parentheses with time of publishing.  For instance, if the publish time is 22th October, 1994.  In APA, it should be (1994, October 22).  Then, students should put the article's title.  The following one is website's name and it need italic.  Finally, the link of that website is needed. For example of APA, if the author's name is Weili Hu, the publish date is 2013/03/21, the title of article is Sheep, the website name is League of Legends, and the link of website is http://na.leagueoflegends.com.  So, the APA should be Hu, W.L. (2013, March 21). Sheep.  League of Legends.  Retrieved from http://na.leagueoflegends.com.
