Anthologies (MLA)

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a practical educational tool designed to teach students the MLA (Modern Language Association) citation format specifically for works found in anthologies. The title “Anthologies (MLA)” heads the page, signaling the focus of the exercise. Students are provided with a template to practice writing citations, which is an essential skill for accurate referencing in academic writing. The template includes blanks for the author’s name, the title of the work, the anthology’s title, publication details, and page numbers, all of which must be filled out by the student.

Following the template, the worksheet includes a designated section labeled “Write the Citation:” where students can write out the full citation based on the information they have entered. This part of the exercise helps to reinforce the correct order and punctuation as required by MLA guidelines. By engaging with this format, students learn how to give appropriate credit to original works within collected volumes, an important aspect of scholarly research and writing.
