Notes to the Teacher/Facilitator
What’s New
A. Choose from the box the source from which each statement below came. Write
the letter of your answer on your notebook.
e. Mandela, N. (1998)
f. Roosevelt, E. (1957)
1. “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible
to the eye.”
2. “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to
achieve it.”
3. “The youth is the hope of our future.”
4. “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
5. “The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time
we fall.”
4
B. Read the given statement then complete the table below based on each category.
Copy and answer the table on your notebook.
Jane Mayumi is a student researcher who wanted to find a related study for her
qualitative research about stress management among senior high school students.
She then found and used the journal of Dr. Henry Lazarus entitled The Medical
Journal which discussed the Psychological Stress and the Coping Process among
Teenagers, published in New York at McGraw Hill in 1976.
What is It
How would you feel if you successfully finished a certain research project with
all your effort and your classmates just copied your work without your
acknowledgment and claimed as if they own it? You may probably feel mad.
This kind of scenario actually happens in most text-based materials which is
very rampant in research. It is plagiarism. This is copying someone’s work or
idea without the author’s consent or full attribution. The advent of internet
leads the way to search, download, and copy-paste the data thus increases
more the number of plagiarism cases.

In your research paper, your reference list should appear at the end page
before the appendices. It presents the detailed data necessary for a reader to
find any source cited in the body of the paper. Each source you mention in
the paper must be found in your reference list, also, each entry in the
reference list must be cited in your text. It should begin on a new page
separate from the text of the essay; label this page as "References" in bold, at
top of the page. All texts should be double-spaced just like the rest of your
paragraphs (Purdue Writing Lab, 2021)
You may find it difficult to cite all the sources you consulted especially when
you run out of time. To make it easier for you to present your sources, you
need to take down notes instantly where you got the information you quoted,
paraphrased, or summarized since the beginning of your study. The next thing
you need to do is to write down these sources with a proper citation style.
There are different ways of citing resources from your research which depend
upon the kind of academic discipline you follow (pitt.libguides.com). Some of
these are:
This module focuses on the APA system of documenting sources since this is
the most commonly used in research. Here, you will be taught about the basic
rules from Dixie State University Library in using the APA format in doing
your reference list. They are as what follows:
a. Double spaced all citations; Indent after the first line of each entry.
b. Alphabetize by the first word of the entry, most commonly by the first
author’s surname. Do not number the entries.
6
d. Arrange the references with the same first author and different second or
third authors alphabetically by the surname of the second author, and
so on.
e. Note the editions of books after the title in the following format: (2nd ed.)
First editions are not listed as such. If no edition is listed, omit the edition
section.
g. Capitalize only the first word of a title, the first word of a subtitle, and
proper nouns in titles of books and articles, no matter how they appear
in a database or catalog.
i. Write the dates in Year, Month Day format (e.g., 1999, December 20).
k. Put the dates in parenthesis after the author's name (or title if no author
is listed).
Examples of reference list entries with APA format (Research Guides: Citation
Guide: Home, 2021):
A. Published Materials
1. Books
7
Example:
Forbez, J. E. (2008). The elements of library research: What every student needs
to know. Bulacan Press.
For a book written by more than two or more authors, here are the things to
do:
• List down all the names of authors regardless of numbers, surname first.
• Use commas to separate surnames and initials.
• Place an ampersand (&) before the name of the last author.
• When a source that has three or more authors are cited, include the
name of only the first author plus “et al.”
Example:
Montas, H., Oreco, K., & Torres, C. (1999). Philosophical foundations of behavior
modification. Rex Bookstore Publishing.
Example:
Example:
Paule, S. (2000). The unpublished journals. J.E. Lucid (Ed.). New York, NY:
Anchor.
Identify an edition other than the first or a specific volume with parentheses
following the title without any intervening punctuation.
8
Example:
2. Periodicals:
Journal Paginated by issue. If each issue of a journal begins with page 1, give
the issue number in parentheses after the volume number.
Example:
Reynes, R. (1999). The voice of war. The New criterion, 15 (3), 5-13.
3. Magazine Article.
The entry for citing a magazine article includes the author, (year and month
of publication) article title, magazine title, volume (issue), and page.
Example:
Rivera, C. R., III. (1995, April 29). Making the grade in today’s schools. Time, 139,
22-25.
4. Newspaper Article.
Example:
B. Electronic Sources:
• A title or description
• A date (either date of publication or date of retrieval)
• An address (URL) or Digital Object Identifier
• An author's name, if available
Follow the same guidelines for printed articles. Include all the information.
