2. As appropriate, cite your sources using footnotes or another appropriate citation style.
3. Use the resources section to provide information about recommended readings and any sources that you cite. Use a standard bibliographic format (you may wish to use APA since this is required in other CSIA courses). Information about sources and recommended readings, including in-text citations, should be formatted consistently and professionally.
4. Each file should start with a title page which lists the following information:
· Lab Title and Number
· Date
· Your Name
5. The CSIA 310 Template for Lab Deliverable.docx file is set up to provide the required title page and twoincident response guidance templates. Use the first template for your “System Restore Points” guidance. Use the second template for your “Managing Programs and Features” guidance.
