The College of Education is located in and serves the needs of one of the nation's largest metropolitan areas. Thus, the College reflects the dynamic character of urban life and is sensitive to the special experiences, conditions and opportunities presented by a culturally diverse student body.

Out of the conviction that education is the means by which human circumstances can be improved, the College prepares professionals who have the commitment and competence to help people acquire the knowledge, skills and understandings necessary to participate in and contribute to a complex changing society.   To achieve this mission the College is committed to excellence in teaching, research and service.

      
     
     

    Welcome!

    Welcome to the guide for the College of Education!

    I hope that you will find this guide a useful starting place for your research. I have assembled a core collection of resources available through the Wayne State University Library System, as well as high quality, freely available web resources. This guide is a collaborative work-in-progress, developed with the suggestions and feedback from students and faculty in all Divisions and Programs in the College of Education.

    I am available by appointment to assist students and faculty with research related to the College of Education. You may also contact me to schedule research workshops for classes or to suggest items for purchase.

    Veronica Bielat, Librarian Liaison for the College of Education

    Help with APA Style

    The College of Education uses the APA 6th Edition style manual for paper and citation formatting. Applying APA style correctly is an important step in preventing plagiarism. These resources can help you if you are unfamiliar with APA style or need clarification on how to properly cite a source.

    • Basics of APA Style  
      From the APA website, a series of short tutorials that explain how to format your paper, references, in-text citations and more in APA style.
    • APA Exposed  
      This set of tutorials from Harvard's Graduate School of Education demonstrate how and why to use APA style, and gives easy-to-understand examples of in-text citations
