Outcome 5 (Document Work MLA) – Document their work using appropriate conventions (MLA). (Word Count: 175)

I did well with my Works Cited throughout the semester. I find having a proper works cite page makes a paper look more professional so I usually do those first before I even start tackling my essay. This also ensures that I have one so I don’t forget to do a works cited page 20 minutes before the essay is due.

I find that having a works cited page after my essay makes it feel finally complete. It also adds to my argument as I cited the sources I use (which makes it look more professional). As for in text citations, I usually do pretty well with those too. I believe that having a proper in text citation adds to your argument as much as a proper works cited page.

When I have a smooth transition from an in text citation to my analysis I feel more accomplished. I also like having a nice transition from my introduction of the source into my quote. I feel as though it makes my writing have more depth.
