Citing your sources in the text is a very important part of both the APA style and academic style in general. Citing your sources in the text shows your reader where you have obtained your information.
When citing quotes from sources you need:- the author;
- the year;
- and, if directly quoting, the page number.
Dr. McLean (2004) notes that "students are eager to learn new material and participate in academic life" (p. 5).
The author's name, in this case, is used to introduce the material. When this is done you follow the name with the date in parenthesis. The page number is then put in another parenthesis at the end of the sentence.
