Documenting Evidence.

What is the documentation?? Documentation is refer to the system that we use to give credit to our sources when we used  the words. It is very important to us when we used other sources. We need to document our sources because we need to let our reader know what we are writing and you are trying to come with new ideas. Then, it is also can inform our reader where to locate the original documents. next it is also can reduce the plagiarism by giving the appropriate credit where it is done.

There are two part of APA-style. It is very important in documenting evidence processes. The two part were an in-text citation(not a footnote) which is given the main text of the paper. And the other one was an entry in an alphabetical list of references, which appears at the end of the paper.

 The situation for the in-text citation, there were divided into 4 part. For the first part was a work with two author which is we need to place all author's name with 'and' for example "Howatt and Richard (1984).Next, a work with three to five authors which for the first citation, we were placing all name of authors then the next citation of the same resources, we just to provide the first's followed by 'et al'. Besides that, a work with o author listed or an anonymous work which is if the particle don't have specify the author use for the first or three words of the title in place author. For example, (Communicate to Teans,2007). Lastly, a sources cited in another sources for example (cited in Kuala Lumpur).

I think I need to stop my writing and I hope you can get something from this information..Thanks You..
