How do I properly cite information from a USLO?

I need to cite a USLO for one of my classes. How do I get started?


Answer

The librarians encourage students to sign up for an Academic Writer (AW) account.

AW is from the APA or the American Psychological Association. APA is the same organization that produces APA style, and that's the *only* style used in Academic Writer.

Galen's premium subscription to Academic Writer can be accessed from any Canvas course- the link is in the left navigation bar.

Meanwhile, you can use the PowerPoint Slide or Lecture Note Reference templates for citing a USLO:

https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/powerpoint-references

Just change [PowerPoint slides] to [Unit Student Learning Outcome].

If you're using Academic Writer, when you look at the templates for references, see the last row in the second column- Unpublished and Informally Published Works.

Use the template for “Lecture" from an Online course, PowerPoint slides or lecture notes.
