Edit your work!

Check that:

–every word is spelled correctly (including dose / does, form / from)

–correct punctuation is used throughout (and in the right place!)

–capital letters are used when necessary

TIPS:

–Keep a list of your common mistakes

–Use FIND/REPLACE to find mistakes and fix them

–Take a break before editing and print out you work - it’s easier to spot mistakes

–Get someone else to read your paper (i.e., a learning advisor at Student Learning Support or a friend). At least read it aloud and listen to what you are reading.

Formatting – APA style
