Getting Started

Welcome

This guide has been designed to give you easy access to the resources most frequently used in the study of phonetics. You can use the tabs on the top of the page to access specific resources. Those resources include:

Finding Articles - When you click on this tab, you will be presented with an annotated list of the electronic databases used most frequently for topics in phonetics. These databases will provide you with access to articles appearing in scholarly, peer reviewed journals as well as items published in popular sources such as news magazines, newspapers and trade publications. This page will also provide you with a link to Google Scholar.

APA 7th Style Citation Guide - Professor Goldberg has requested that you use APA citations in your paper. This page will direct you to a guide that provides you with instructions and examples of how to cite sources using APA style.

Why Cite? - This tab links to another guide that has been created to explain the importance of citation in academic writing.  Check out this tab to learn the basics of paraphrasing, how often to use direct quotes, and why attribution is so important to the scholarly conversation.
