    Thank you Dr. Taylor for taking your time to make these videos for us. I feel less nervous now. I’m 45 years old going to college for the first time. English is my most feared class due to the fact that is my third language 😩
    I’ll be watching all your videos !

    Many thanks, truly and deeply! I had only reluctantly returned to google docs because I don't trust google at all. That said it's far more intuitive than something like AbiWord which barely has any documentation at all and constantly breaks my line and applies formatting to the entire document unselectively.

    To be clear everything else was very easily understandable. You are magnificent.

    Thank you

  • @effectivewritingcenter8390

    Short and clear. Maybe some information on MLA subtitles would be helpful. Any info on those forthcoming?

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před 2 lety +2

      Excellent suggestion. They would definitely be just right for a short video. Thanks!

    Thank you for the easy-to-follow video. After typing the citation, I noticed returning to the Paragraph dropdown the Line spacing on the lesson was Multiple 1.15 and the Spacing, After: 10 pt. I didn't notice you telling us to change that line spacing got confused. Do we change the citation line spacing to Multiple 1.15 and the Spacing After: 10 pt? Just need clarification.

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před rokem

      You can. MLA doesn't provide specifics. Make it look like the models.

    Dear sir,
    How to show multiple quotations from the same work (having different page numbers) in work cited list?

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před 2 lety +1

      Regardless of how many time you quote from a single source, that source appears only once on the Works Cited list.

    • @heatherw02hw
      @heatherw02hw Před 2 lety

      The only difference would be your page numbers in the In-text citation.

    Is it at the library computer.M.L.A.

  • @dragon1353
    @dragon1353 Před 2 lety

    Does it matter what edition of MLA we use? Or should we use the newest one by defult, in this case 9th edition?

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před 2 lety +1

      Use the edition specified by your instructor. If no edition is specified, use the latest one to be safe.

    @heatherw02hw Před 2 lety

    My heading looks like it takes up too much space is there anyway to fix that? Is it is how it's supposed to be, I just highlighted my entire document and doubled spaced it.

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před 2 lety +1

      Can you take a screenshot so I can see? Thanks!

      Try this one on in-text citations: czcams.com/video/1sT8GpUqkcI/video.html I'll post the video on Works Cited on Monday. Thanks!

    What is Title Case?

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před rokem

      In academic writing, "title case" means that in a title or subtitle all words are capitalized except articles and prepositions with fewer than four letters.

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  Před 2 lety +2

      Thanks for the question, Philip. You should be good without buying the book, unless you are a masters or doctoral-level student. Usually, you can find answers to your questions with Google.
