In this space you will summarize (400-600 words) your metacognition and reflection experiences throughout the semester focusing on the metacognition practices and lectures thus far in class. This is a written examination of your own learning process and growth. (practice summery one ) The metacognition reflection concerning the videos gives an outlook of what we should be ready for and what we are experiencing. It shows that challenges are there and need to be overcome, as demonstrated in the Poetry Found/tonight, which also indicates that every person has time to be successful and write one’s history (Miranda & Platt, 2018). Today’s challenges endurance is a sign of hope to the rising generation. Here I would express my feelings, that is, feeling timid and distressed, impressed, and a sense of self-belief because listening to all songs gives e a sense of hope and self-belief. I think this is a good use of poetry and drama as a way of expression. Alison starts the presentation about how she and her dad were gay (Awards 2015). Surprisingly, Alison did not know until she saw a woman walking in, and she explained that she had not seen a woman such beautiful. The first view of the woman Alison sees here is very much attractive. Alison explains in her song how she dressed and the beautiful outlook. Her father is also gay because the woman’s appearance does not attract him; he concentrates on his magazine; additionally, he tells Alison to fix her hair and look like a boy. When I listened to Alison, I felt timid and distressed, as if I am a person denied what I deserve. I also feel impressed by the way she describes the delivery woman. However, there is fear of her being accepted as per her feelings. Concerning the feminism journal, in the second wave of feminism, women are seen to campaign for the general allowance of lesbianism as a way of being free, thus bringing the sense of freedom that conquers with the reflection. And fights the feeling of fear. . Helen Reddy’s –I am a woman is a song that indicates the stronghold of a woman; strong, invincible and hardworking, and determined (Reddy, 1971). Listening to this song makes me feel reborn and energized. It makes me feel the importance of women and a new strength at low expectations. A sense of self-belief is created in me. In her piece, the elements of women being incorporated and considered are seen in the third wave of feminism where Rebecca wanted a balance for all women and gain freedom and bring change, which is celebrated today, Lin-Manual Miranda & Ben Platt found song is a song that focuses on having the freedom to make one’s legacy known (Miranda & Platt, 2018). The song indicates that change may not be immediate, but it will eventually come. The singing of the line “Have you ever felt forgotten…’makes me have a feeling of fear. Additionally, the continuation makes me feel hope, joy, and happiness. It gives me a sense of energy and belief that I can still make it even when least expected to. It complements the journals, which have helped me understand how gendered communication is achieved. In conclusion, the reflection clearly shows how gender communication is well brought out from the biological formation and disparities such as hormonal imbalance to being listened to by the other societies and the feelings experienced, their effects, and the growth as such communication.

Reference List: Basic Rules
Note: This page reflects the latest version of the APA Publication Manual (i.e., APA 7), which released in October 2019. The equivalent resource for the older APA 6 style can be found here.
This resource, revised according to the 7th edition APA Publication Manual, provides fundamental guidelines for constructing the reference pages of research papers. For more information, please consult the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, (7th ed.).
Note: Because the information on this page pertains to virtually all citations, we’ve highlighted one important difference between APA 6 and APA 7 with an underlined note written in red.
Formatting a Reference List
Your reference list should appear at the end of your paper. It provides the information necessary for a reader to locate and retrieve any source you cite in the body of the paper. Each source you cite in the paper must appear in your reference list; likewise, each entry in the reference list must be cited in your text.
Your references should begin on a new page separate from the text of the essay; label this page “References” in bold, centered at the top of the page (do NOT underline or use quotation marks for the title). All text should be double-spaced just like the rest of your essay.
Basic Rules for Most Sources
- All lines after the first line of each entry in your reference list should be indented one-half inch from the left margin. This is called hanging indentation.
- All authors’ names should be inverted (i.e., last names should be provided first).
- Authors’ first and middle names should be written as initials.
- For example, the reference entry for a source written by Jane Marie Smith would begin with “Smith, J. M.”
- If a middle name isn’t available, just initialize the author’s first name: “Smith, J.”
- Give the last name and first/middle initials for all authors of a particular work up to and including 20 authors (this is a new rule, as APA 6 only required the first six authors). Separate each author’s initials from the next author in the list with a comma. Use an ampersand (&) before the last author’s name. If there are 21 or more authors, use an ellipsis (but no ampersand) after the 19th author, and then add the final author’s name.
- Reference list entries should be alphabetized by the last name of the first author of each work.
- For multiple articles by the same author, or authors listed in the same order, list the entries in chronological order, from earliest to most recent.
- When referring to the titles of books, chapters, articles, reports, webpages, or other sources, capitalize only the first letter of the first word of the title and subtitle, the first word after a colon or a dash in the title, and proper nouns.
- Note again that the titles of academic journals are subject to special rules. See section below.
- Italicize titles of longer works (e.g., books, edited collections, names of newspapers, and so on).
- Do not italicize, underline, or put quotes around the titles of shorter works such as chapters in books or essays in edited collections.
Basic Rules for Articles in Academic Journals
- Present journal titles in full.
- Italicize journal titles.
- Maintain any nonstandard punctuation and capitalization that is used by the journal in its title.
- For example, you should use PhiloSOPHIA instead of Philosophia, or Past & Present instead of Past and Present.
- Capitalize all major words in the titles of journals. Note that this differs from the rule for titling other common sources (like books, reports, webpages, and so on) described above.
- This distinction is based on the type of source being cited. Academic journal titles have all major words capitalized, while other sources’ titles do not.
- Capitalize the first word of the titles and subtitles of journal articles, as well as the first word after a colon or a dash in the title, and any proper nouns.
- Do not italicize or underline the article title.
- Do not enclose the article title in quotes.
- So, for example, if you need to cite an article titled “Deep Blue: The Mysteries of the Marianas Trench” that was published in the journal Oceanographic Study: A Peer-Reviewed Publication, you would write the article title as follows:
- Deep blue: The mysteries of the Marianas Trench.
- …but you would write the journal title as follows:
- Oceanographic Study: A Peer-Reviewed Publication
- So, for example, if you need to cite an article titled “Deep Blue: The Mysteries of the Marianas Trench” that was published in the journal Oceanographic Study: A Peer-Reviewed Publication, you would write the article title as follows:
Please note: While the APA manual provides examples of how to cite common types of sources, it does not cover all conceivable sources. If you must cite a source that APA does not address, the APA suggests finding an example that is similar to your source and using that format. For more information, see page 282 of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 7th ed.
