This quick exercise was designed to help you cite sources for your research assignment. Just follow the same steps as we did in class.
Don't forget to ask a librarian if you get stuck OR would like to have your citations checked before you turn in your paper.
1. Open the web page Key findings on Americans’ views of race in 2019.
2. In your group, work together to gather the Core Elements from the website, for example: author, web page title, etc.
3. Each group member fills in each Core Element on the green MLA Worksheet (fill in the blank boxes).
4. Check our work as a class.
