Works Consulted

  • You must use a minimum of TWO sources
  • Sources may only be from online or print encyclopedias and books (no websites)

Images

  • To cite an image in NoodleTools: Website  → Photo or Image (Born Digital).
  • Many of the databases have images for use and provide you with the MLA image citation, which you can export to NoodleTools. Please check the databases first.
  • If you use the Photos for Class image website the citation is built into the image itself, so you do not need to cite it in NoodleTools.
  • If not using the Photos for Class website, your image citations must be listed on the last slide of your presentation (titled "Image Citations").
  • If searching within Google Images, choose Tools → Usage Rights → Creative Commons licenses. You will have to build the citation yourself using NoodleTools and list your citation on the last slide of your presentation.
