Write: Using the Week 1 APA Unformatted Example Essay, complete the following task: Using the “Track Changes”      function located under the “Review” tab at the top of the Word document      with the unformatted essay, identify as many APA formatting errors as      possible (there are at least 25 errors). Using the “Comments” function,      correctly write out the APA rule that applies to the identified errors.      You do this by highlighting the word, words, or error and clicking on “New      Comment” located under the “Review” tab at the top of your Word document.      A comment box will pop up at the right of your paper for you to write the rule      to the error. Do not comment on repeat      errors. For example, if two citations have the same formatting mistake,      comment on only one of them. Note that there are some      capitalization and punctuation errors that you may correct through Track      Changes, but they are not the focus of this exercise.
