• 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.
