For those of you who are currently trying to generate MLA references for your essays, here is a good website which creates references automatically for you;
Dear students, Today is your mid-term test, which is worth 20 points. Ten points will be awarded for map/outline, title, paragraph shape, thesis statment, three in-text citations in APA format, and three matching references in your "Works Cited". The other ten points will be for your writing. Remember, it is a classification essay, so you should be classifying clearly. You will have 20 minutes to look for references online, and 60 minutes to write your essay. You only need to write three intext citations and three matching references for this test, but a good essay may have more than three. Therefore, if you cite more than three sources, just put (4), (5), (6), etc. as in-text citation markers in your essay to suggest that you would need to cite these properly if you had the time. Your "Works Cited" only needs to have the three references which match your first three in-text citations. Is that clear? Kind regards, Chris Elvin
