Citations in Microsoft Edge: It is a common need for students to cite data sources for research. They have to manage many research references and sources, which is not an easy task. They must also translate these citations into appropriate citation formats such as APA, MLA, and Chicago. This new “citation” feature in Microsoft Edge (now in preview) provides students with a better way to manage and generate citations for their online research. After turning on the “Citations” feature in “Favorites” or “Settings and More” (Alt-F), Microsoft Edge will automatically generate citations that students can use in the future so they can concentrate on their research. When they are finished, they can easily incorporate these citations into the final deliverable.
