Jing and Screencast

This week I used Jing.com to create a lesson on how to use the APA formatted word document from Microsoft Office suite. I found it difficult to use because I have to afterwards log in to sreencast.com to retrieve the link for the class, unlike other publishers where you get the link on the same page.
The reason I choose a lesson on APA is because many of my students struggle to format an ordinary word document to conform to APA standards. Unfortunately the margins and spacing are not the same. This lesson will save my students time and frustration.
APA Formatting
According to APA Style guidelines, the document should be formatted with margins one inch top, bottom, left, and right; written using Times New Roman font in 12 point; double-spaced; aligned flush left; and paragraphs indented 5-7 spaces. Page numbering appears one inch from the right edge on the first line of each page, excluding the Figures page. Acquire a copy of the APA guidelines 6th edition book here apastyle.org/ for more details.
Watch the lesson here to learn more about the APA formatted word document.
