Reference Format¨For these presentations, you are required to use at least three references. At least one of these must be a primary reference (research article from scientific journals). Secondary references can include textbooks, review articles, and peer-reviewed websites for background information. When using web sites, be sure you are using only reliable sources (no, Wikipedia is a jumping off point, but NOT a reliable source verify anything you think you learned form Wikipedia with actual sources). Although there are many acceptable ways to include references, for your presentation and project this semester we will use AMA style. The references must be cited consecutively in the body of your presentation (with the exception of the primary reference), with the first reference cited numbered 1. The references should then be listed in numerical order (in the order in which they appear in the body of your report) in the references section.
