BELLRINGER: FRESHMAN TECHNOLOGY-  CITATION OF SOURCES.
One of the toughest parts of the upcoming Research Paper is the proper documentation of source material.  To that end, we will be practicing citing sources in this Bellringer.

Pretend that you have found the following paragraph on the internet that you would like to summarize for your paper:

"Coca-Cola history began in 1886 when the curiosity of an Atlanta pharmacist, Dr. John S. Pemberton, led him to create a distinctive tasting soft drink that could be sold at soda fountains. He created a flavored syrup, took it to his neighborhood pharmacy, where it was mixed with carbonated water and deemed “excellent” by those who sampled it."

This was located at the following website:  

https://commons.marymount.edu/cocacolaad/history/

You decide to SUMMARIZE this information for use in your paper by writing (NOTE the inline citation [AUTHOR, DATE or TITLE, DATE] at the end of your sentence that indicates where your information came from):

"Coca Cola was founded in 1886 when an Atlanta pharmacist, Dr. John Pemberton, created a flavored syrup and mixed it with carbonated water." (("Coca-Cola history – Coca Cola ad," 2021)

On your SOURCES PAGE, you would have any entry for this resource in the format AUTHOR, DATE or TITLE, DATE, RETRIEVED FROM URL:

Coca-Cola history – Coca Cola ad. (2017). Marymount Commons. https://commons.marymount.edu/cocacolaad/history/

You can create your citations by hand, simply typing the information as indicated above.  If you wish, you can also use Mr. B.'s favorite ONLINE CITATION MACHINE at citefast.com.  To do this, check out the "using the CITATION instructions" from the RED ARROW TABLE in the RESEARCH PAPER ASSIGNMENT SHEET:
