How to Read Book???

Tip to read books in proper way :

1) Table of content - know the right book to read
2) Index - help us to read book faster and save our time
3) Back of the book or in front (academic book) - publication data

Now,,,we have given a task..a group have 4 members…I was so excited to find these books…coz when I at school…I never learn how to find the books using such a specific detail…hahaha..

1) choose 5 books per group
2) Fulfill the form
3) Read book correctly and identify : call number, table content and index
4) Returning all the books at your table with the form

So…we have given this list…two of us, I and my friend, must find one book from this long list...


 And after a few minutes..we found that books..but I forgot to take the pic..oh my goddness..

Another task that my other members is find four books and identify it…so..here it is..the last one is the book that I found early, but we write it there too:



What is APA style???

-APA (America Psychological Association) style is most commonly used to cite sources with within social sciences
-APA style® originated in 1929, when a group of psychologists, anthropologists and business managers convened and sought to establish a simple set of producers or style rules that would codify the many components of scientific writing to increase the ease of reading comprehension
-APA Style consists of rules or guidelines that a publisher observers to ensure clear and consistent presentation of written material.
-It concerns uniform use of such elements as:

*selection of headings, tone and length
*punctuation and abbreviations
*presentation of numbers and statistics
*construction of tables and figures
*citation of references and
*many other elements that are a part of a manuscript

-APA style rules and guidelines are found in the sixth edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association

Okay..now lets me tell more about this APA Style....coz I know..its hard..for the first we know about this....after we do more assignments next time…I think it’ll be easy…. :)
