If you teach a subject that requires research essays, one of the hardest things to get through your students’ heads is just how to make a bibliography. To make it worse, if you’re like me you prefer one style of referencing (the Chicago/Turabian style) and if you’re like our English teacher across the hall, you prefer another (the MLA).
