APA formatting
APA formatting for a PowerPoint varies. You MUST use in-text citations for all information you share (including images and videos). The LAST slide of the PowerPoint needs to be a Reference page with APA formatted citations.
You will need a title page: Disorder, class title, name and date.
Minimum slide requirement: 15 slides, every slide has to have a purpose and not just a picture (not to include the title page or reference page).
Reference Page slides required, make sure you cite.
DO NOT use WIKIPEDIA as a reference. If you do you will receive 0 points for the paper. You can use google scholar or the BCC library for assistance.
