Begin with an APA-formatted title page. APA annotated title page (Links to an external site.)
Beginning on page 2, start your 500-word article summary that includes a topic sentence.
An academic summary focuses on identifying the most important article and relating those facts in APA format. You can use your Academic Writer account for help with the APA format.
The topic sentence should tell readers the title of the article and what you’ve determined the main point of the article to be. This paper should be an attempt at formal, academic writing assignment using APA style. View the following sample paper to guide your APA formatting: Sample APA Style Paper (Links to an external site.).
At the end of your summary, insert a page break to create your References page. Since you’re going to be summarizing an article that has been published in an academic journal and you’re going to have found that journal in one of Galen Library’s online databases, the citation on the References page will be written as follows:
AuthorLastName, AuthorFirstInitial. (Year). Title of the article using sentence capitalization. Name of Journal Using Title Capitalization, volume#(issue#), page range of entry. Retrieved from <url>
Ex:
Jackson, S. (2017). The stages of patient admission. Journal of Nursing, 7(1), 45 – 48. Retrieved from https://galen.ebsco.com
Items of note:
For the volume and issue number, you’re just listing the numbers.
The volume number will be italicized, but the issue number will not be italicized.
Use sentence capitalization for the title of the article; that is, you’re only going to capitalize the first word of the title and any proper nouns.
