ALL ABSTRACTS MUST BE IN APA FORMAT – see announcement area for an abstract example and a link to a website that will assist you in APA format.
The purpose of an abstract is to provide a brief but comprehensive summary of an article that you choose from one of the approved sources, only one article per abstract. You choose the article from one of the approved sources that pertains to Microeconomics (examples: Markets in Action, Different types of competition, Production, Antirust/Government Regulations, International Trade/Finance). The article can be no more than 5 years old. Composing an abstract serves an important function in that it forces you to analyze carefully the true nature of the material you are reading. If the plagiarism software Turnitin finds that more than eight percent of your abstract is quoted from the author or authors 15 points will be deducted from your overall score. Your opinion as to whether you agree with the author or not is welcome. The only acceptable sources for your abstract are listed below. Create the abstract using Microsoft Word then save the abstract as a Microsoft Word Document (.docx) or (.rtf). I cannot open .wps files. Now attach the abstract to the appropriate Drop Box located in Canvas. Citation Format: Author(s) of article. Title of article: Name of publication; date of publication. Your submitted abstract will be run through Turnitin to check for plagiarism. Make sure your abstract is proofread and is in proper form.
