CREATING A SHORT RESEARCH PAPER
GETTING STARTED
• Open the file SC_WD16_2a_FirstLastName_1.docx, available for download
from the SAM website.
• Save the file as SC_WD16_2a_FirstLastName_2.docx by changing the “1”
to a “2”.
o If you do not see the .docx file extension in the Save As dialog box, do
not type it. The program will add the file extension for you automatically.
• With the file SC_WD16_2a_FirstLastName_2.docx still open, ensure that
your first and last name is displayed in the footer.
o If the footer does not display your name, delete the file and download a
new copy from the SAM website.
PROJECT STEPS
1. For your Written Communication class, you are writing a short research paper.
To conform to MLA guidelines, modify the document’s Normal style by changing
the font to Times New Roman, the font size to 12 pt., and the line spacing to
double with no blank space after paragraphs.
2. Apply the modified Normal style to the first four paragraphs in the document,
from “Crystal Mathison” to “15 October 2018”.
3. Center the title paragraph “A Solution to Food Deserts: Micro Farms”.
4. Insert a header as follows:
a. Insert a blank header at the top of the page.
b. Right-align the header paragraph.
c. Type Mathison as the header text, insert a space, and then insert a
Plain Number page number from the Current Position gallery.
d. Close Header & Footer Tools.
5. Create a First Line indent of 0.5" for the body paragraphs beginning with “In
the United States…” and ending with “…avenues for profitable enterprises.”
6. Change the Citations & Bibliography Style of the document to MLA.
