Q. How do I cite modules or materials from courses?

No official format for citing online classroom materials exists - we do have a recommended format to use in citing such documents that vary depending on the citation style you are using.

In general you will need to know the author (University of Maryland Global Campus is the author for classroom materials), date, document title, the UMGC class and course code, and a URL. For the order, and specifics of these types of citations, please go to the citation style guide you need:

• APA 
• MLA
• Chicago

Here is how you would cite the materials in APA. For further information please click one of the links above.
