Humanities, English, Religion, and Philosophy students at Lawrenceville are required to cite their sources in MLA Style.
In MLA, you will need to create two citations for each written source (background article, website, etc.):
A full bibliographic citation (goes at the end of your paper on the Works Cited page)
An in-text citation (a shorter, parenthetical citation that sits at the end of each piece of evidence used in your writing).
For visual sources (posters, illustrations, photographs), you will need:
A full bibliographic citation (goes at the end of your paper on the Works Cited page)
A citation below each image, in the full bibliographic format (the same one that goes at the end of your works cited page). You will use Figure or Fig. before the citation.
Only cite the information that is available to you. If you cannot identify a piece of the template [e.g. an author or date], leave it out rather than making it up.
Unless your teacher has specified another style, most science courses at Lawrenceville require APA citation style.
For all APA citations, you will need:
A full bibliographic citation (goes at the end of your paper/presentation on the Works Cited page)
An in-text citation (a shorter, parenthetical citation that sits at the end of each piece of evidence used in your writing).
Only cite the information that is available to you. If you cannot identify a piece of the template [e.g. an author or date], leave it out rather than making it up.
Follow all punctuation and text styles in the guide examples linked below. The periods, commas, italics, and quotation marks matter so shoot for precision.
For help with Noodletools:
I asked ChatGPT a question during my research process - how do I cite an AI prompt in Noodletools?
After creating your project in Noodletools, select "new source", from a website, then select "AI Response/Output". The prompt should contain the original question you asked ChatGPT. You may also cite follow-up responses.
