Step 1:

Review our MLA Formatting page, paying particular attention to the Work Cited page tab.

In your Essay 1, you will either use an article or a video that you will then have to cite. MLA required that those me formatted using a specific formula. The two formulas you will need are below:

• For an article:
  • Provide the author name (last name first), article name in quotation marks, title of the web magazine in italics, publisher name, publication date. Here is an example:Bernstein, Mark. “10 Tips on Writing the Living Web.” A List Apart: For People Who Make Websites, 16 Aug. 2002.
• For a video:
  • Speaker Last Name, First Name. “Title of video.” YouTube, uploaded by Screen Name, day month year, www.youtube.com/xxxxx.Here is an example:Duckworth, Angle, Lee. “Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance.” YouTube,uploaded by TED, 9 May 2013.

Step 2:

Create your Works Cited page for Essay 1.

Remember that:

• The Works Cited page starts on a new page.
• The title, Works Cited, is centered, 1 inch from the top of the page. It is not bold or underlined.
• Entries are listed in alphabetical order by author last name or, if there is no author, first letter in the title. Since, you will likely only have one, you don’t have to worry about this part yet.
• All sources listed in the Works Cited have at least one corresponding in-text citation.
• Works Cited are double-spaced and each entry that requires a second line uses a hanging indent.
• If you want to see it, here is a Sample Works Cited.
• Remember to attach this Works Cited page to your final draft of Essay 1 due Sunday.
