How acceptable are self-citations?

What are in text citations and how do i use them?

  • I have this project at school where i have to write a 7 paragraph essay and my teacher tells us to cite our sources both in text citations and in a biblioraphy. For my sources im using a online database, book and website. Can someone tell me what are in text citations and give an example of one or how to use them thank you soooo much!!

  • Answer:

    in text citations are put into the writing, example: Olives have sodium (Rodgers, page 103). also an in text citation could have a note number which you would cite at the bottom of the page of the sentence: Olives have sodium.^1 when you are finished writing, you must write out a bibliography page telling all the sources you used. this allows a reader to see exactly where you got your information and where they could find it if they wanted to read more. take a look at the links i have attached. i think they will answer your question completely.
