Assesment #9

Formal citations work within an essay to show support for your reasons and opinions, and to show that you aren’t just making things up. They also work to show your audience that you are NOT plagiarizing. Formal citations help create arguments because you have proof that someone else agrees or disagrees with you and your opinion. It proves that there are people who feel the same way as you. It shows support because it gives evidence for your reasoning and your opinions.
