Reference List Entry Examples - Citing Your Sources Tutorial - LibGuides at Colorado Community Colleges Online | Books | Print Periodicals | Other Print Sources | | Electronic (Web) Sources | Other Non-Print Sources | Citing Legal Materials | Here are some specific examples that show you how to cite/format different types of sources in the APA style. The best approach to citing is to figure out what kind of source you have, then use a resource like this, the Purdue OWL's APA Formatting and Style Guide or the APA's Publication Manual (6th edition) to look up that kind of source and plug the bibliographic information from your source into that example. When it comes to creating a Reference list page, the nitty gritty details like capitalization, where you place the punctuation and word order matter, so make sure you're doing it all correctly. Please note that the examples below are not correctly formatted with a hanging indent.

Quandary Home Page Quandary is an application for creating Web-based Action Mazes. An Action Maze is a kind of interactive case-study; the user is presented with a situation, and a number of choices as to a course of action to deal with it. On choosing one of the options, the resulting situation is then presented, again with a set of options. Working through this branching tree is like negotiating a maze, hence the name "Action Maze". Action mazes can be used for many purposes, including problem-solving, diagnosis, procedural training, and surveys/questionnaires. Quandary is only available for Windows (although it also works perfectly on Wine under Linux). The Quandary site has now been moved to the University of Victoria.
