Document their work using appropriate conventions (MLA)

MLA format helps keep my writing organized and allows me to make sure I give proper citations and credit to the authors work. In Highschool I was pretty well at incorporating citations into my writing to give credit to the authors. I struggled more on my citation pages for work cited pages since it takes a lot of time to look for the right information for the citation. I still struggle finding the right things for the citations, but I find some slight enjoyment now almost like a scavenger hunt looking for all the information needed.

Citation in my reading response after reading Zadie Smith work Feel Free

In this homework I remember it was bout summarizing the article also having in source quotes. When having a citation, it helps give credit to the author and shows that what is being said isn’t from my voice. It helps keep my work organized so it is easier to find where sources came from when looking back at the work cited page.
