General Format\n\nYour essay should be typed, double-spaced on standard-sized paper (8.5 X 11 inches) with margins of 1 inch on all sides. Your final essay should include, in the order indicated below, as many of the following sections as are applicable, each of which should begin on a separate page:\n\ntitle page, which includes a running head for publication, title, and byline and affiliation \nabstract \ntext \nreferences \nappendixes \nauthor note \nfootnotes/endnotes \ntables \nfigure captions \nfigures \nThe pages of your manuscript should be numbered consecutively, beginning with the title page, as part of the manuscript header in the upper right corner of each page. Your references should begin on a separate page from the text of the essay under the label References (with no quotation marks, underlining, etc.), centered at the top of the page. Appendices and notes should be formatted similarly.\n\nGoto this URL to learn more: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_apa.html\n\n.......\n\nI hope this helps..........\n\nDon

There are many ways you can interpret by "what is the format?"\n\n1) Look at the way the author wrote the article.  There might be things such as a title, columns, footnotes, paragraphs, paraphrases, quotes, page numbers, etc.\n\n2) Look at the grammar and type the person uses. Is it double spaced? Bold? Think of the general "format" for term papers, such as 8 1/2 x 11" paper, 12 Times New Roman font, double spaced, 1 inch margins, including a work cited page, and footnotes.\n\nI guess this is for an english assignment.  Most english teachers / professors would ask dumb questions like that. Haha. \n\nI hope that helped.

Either google APA format or purchase a reference manual for APA. Most college bookstores carry style manuals for both APA and MLA papers. Also, you could look on Amazon.com, search APA format under books and you will find some cheap reference books.

First you need to research your topic, then you need to outline your gathered information. Usually a paragraph will have a topic sentence, three body sentences supporting your topic and a transition sentence. You can use that format until you're done with your essay. Happy writing, you lucky dog!!!!

Primarily - well-rounded education, work experiences, and activities that are relevant to your field.\n\nIn terms of format, I always like short & sweet - briefly highlight all the wonderful things you've done, with just enough detail to get them to ask deeper questions.\n\nI always tailor to specific purposes - get rid of anything that's of questionable relevance in a particular instance, in order to allow more space for things that are sure to matter.

Check with your instructor to determine which documentation style is required for your class: APA, MLA, Chicago/Turabian, CBE, Numbered References, APSA, etc.\n\nThen, remember that the bibliography is an organized list of sources used. The annotation may immediately follow the bibliographic information on the same line, or it may begin on a new line, two lines below the publication information.\n\nBut, since style manuals differ, check with your instructor about which one to use concerning form, spacing, and consistency.\n\nIf you are using APA documentation, the Writing Center offers a short class called "According to APA...".\n\nBelow are some of the most common forms of annotated bibliographies. Click on a link to see examples of each.\nIndicative \n\nThis form of annotation defines the scope of the source, lists the significant topics included, and tells what the source is about.\n\nThis type is different from the informative entry in that the informative entry gives actual information about its source.\n\nIn the indicative entry there is no attempt to give actual data such as hypotheses, proofs, etc. Generally, only topics or chapter titles are included.\n\nExample\nInformative \n\nSimply put, this form of annotation is a summary of the source.\n\nTo write it, begin by writing the thesis; then develop it with the argument or hypothesis, list the proofs, and state the conclusion.\n\nExample\nEvaluative \n\nIn this form of annotation you need to assess the source's strengths and weaknesses.\n\nYou get to say why the source is interesting or helpful to you, or why it is not. In doing this you should list what kind of and how much information is given; in short, evaluate the source's usefulness.\n\nExample\n\nCombination \n\nMost annotated bibliographies are of this type.\n\nThey contain one or two sentences summarizing or describing content and one or two sentences providing an evaluation.\n\nThe most important thing to understand is that entries should be brief.\n\nOnly directly significant details will be mentioned and any information apparent in the title can be omitted from the annotation.\n\nIn addition, background materials and references to previous work by the same author usually are not included.\n\nListed below are three writing styles used in annotated bibliographies. Click on a link to see examples of each.\n\nTelegraphic\n\n(phrases, non-sentences)\n\n\nGet the information out, quickly and concisely. Be clear, but complete and grammatically correct sentences are unnecessary..\n\nExample\n\nComplete sentences\n\n\nIn this style you must always use complete sentences.\n\nThe length of the sentences varies. Subjects and conjunctions are not eliminated even though the tone may be terse. Avoid long and complex sentences.\n\nExample\n\nParagraph\n\n\nWhen using this form of annotation, you must write a full, coherent paragraph.\n\nSometimes this can be similar to the form of a bibliographic essay. It goes without saying that you need to use complete sentences.\n\nIf you have additional questions, ask your course instructor or consider scheduling an appointment with a Writing Center instructor.\n\nThe Writing Center also has information on different documentation systems, such as MLA, APA, Chicago/Turabian, CBE, Numbered References, and APSA styles of citation.\n\nIf you are using APA documentation, you are in luck!

i think the best format would be in five paragraph essay form. \n1st paragraph: introduction to the paper and three main points about the topic\n2nd paragraph: choose one of the main points and write about it in a paragraph\n3rd paragraph: choose a second main point and write a bout it in paragraph form\n4th paragraph: write a paragraph about the last main point\n5th paragraph: conclusion. restate what you said in the introducton and touch upon key facts. \n\ni hope that helped. it should come out to be 2-3 pages depending on your fontsize,spacing,paragraph length etc.

I use Word 2000. You'll find a "show all" menu item in your view menu. (It looks like a 'p' seen from behind). If you use it then your document will look messy, but it helps you in finding out if you've put extra spaces in between words/paragraphs. Take your own time to understand this feature. I recommend you check the whole document with this feature before print previewing.\n\nOr do what other people have suggested - decrease the line spacing! (format>>paragraphs)

Formatting a hard disk is the process by which all data (information) is lost from the drive. You will loose all of the data unless you back it up. The link below will provide step-by-step instructions to formatting a conventional 386-type system. The article is quite old, but will work for all disks. If you are just trying to format for an install for XP then you just boot off the cd and format using the setup instructions.
