Hello!
This is my first year of college. All my paper's will be in APA format,by
using
power point. How do i use power point?
 
Papers are not generally written in PowerPoint. I don't think the APA
Style Guide discusses the style of PowerPoint presentations. However, it
does discuss citations in depth, so if you need to include references on
your slides in APA format, you should consult the APA Publication Manual.
You can get some information from:

http://www.apastyle.org/

You can get other information from:

If you are trying to cite a PowerPoint presentation, you might want to
look at:

http://www.apastyle.org/elecref.html

However, if you need to use APA style a lot, your best bet is to get the
APA Publication Manual:

That'd be "papers", not "paper's". Grammar's fussy, your teachers are likely
to be too. Saved you one red mark there, we did. ;-)

Are you certain your teachers want papers done in PowerPoint? PowerPoint is a
program for creating presentation "slides", not papers. It seems more likely
that you'd be using Word. But whatever ...

Go to www.google.com and plug in:

powerpoint tutorial

as the search terms. That'll get you links to over 3 million sites. The first
ten should get you up and running in PPT.
