APA Citation Guide (7th edition) : When Creating Digital Assignments

Digital Assignments: PowerPoint, Videos and Websites

**Please note that the suggestions on this page are recommendations only and your instructor may have a preference and directions for how and where you list your sources for your assignment.**

Presentation slides (PowerPoint etc) you create:

List your sources in a slide at the end of the PowerPoint presentation, with in-text citations throughout your presentation as applicable. You could also provide a print copy of the sources you used to those attending your presentation. 

Example:

APA PowerPoint Presentation example by Krystyna Nowak

Videos you create:

List your sources in a credits screen at the end of the video.

Websites you create:

  • For images, include a citation under each image using this format “From: XXXX” and then make the image a link back to the original image (example - picture of little girl). Or list the citation at the bottom of the web page.
  • For quotes or material from other sources, include an in-text citation that links back to the original material (example – second paragraph).

Images you create:

If possible list your sources at the bottom or side of the image (example). Otherwise, include a list of citations alongside the image where ever it’s uploaded (e.g., Flickr, eLearn).

If you don't receive specific instructions from your instructor, try to include your citations in a way that doesn't impact the design of your digital assignment.
