| The title page is the first page of the essay or research
report. |
| Use double-line spacing. |
| Include a manuscript page header (first two or three words
from title) and page number in top right hand corner of every page. Allow five
spaces between the manuscript page header and page number. Start with a page
number "1" on the title page. |
| Check whether you need to include a running head on your
title page. The running head is a short title (maximum of 50 characters long),
and should be placed on the top line of the title page, flush left. You should
introduce it with the words "Running head" followed by a colon and
then the running head in capital letters. |
| Does your title page include the three main elements:
title, your name, and educational institution? This information should be
centred both vertically and horizontally on the page. |
| Title (10 to 12 words in length) should be centred with
first letter of each major word capitalised (i.e., Title Case). |
| Author’s name (in Title Case) should be centred on the
next line down. |
| Educational institution (in Title Case) should be centred on the next line down. |
