<p> Hicks, 1</p><p>In-Text Citations Helpful Hints:</p><p> Every time you use information that is not yours (a signal phrase), you MUST cite it!!!</p><p> Citations are always between the ending punctuation and the last thing in the sentence</p><p> o Example: Companies can monitor employees’ every keystroke without legal penalty, but they may have to combat low morale as a result (Lane 129).</p><p> Every time you use a new source in a paragraph, you should use a citation.</p><p> If you use only one source for an entire paragraph, the only time you will make a citation is in the second to last sentence of the paragraph.</p><p> There are different ways to use information from another source:</p><p> o Quotation- Kizza and Ssanyu note that “employee monitoring is a dependable, capable, and very affordable process of electronically or otherwise recording all employee activities at work” and elsewhere (2).</p><p>.
