For professional papers in APA style, an APA header contains the title of the paper on the left, and the page number on the right. However, student papers do not require the title - just the page number. Here is how to insert headers in MS Word:
- Go to the Insert menu in the Word ribbon. Select Header from the Header & Footer section.
- Select Blank Header, the first option.
- Click on Page Number on the top left. Select Top of Page, then Plain Number 1. The pages will now have the page number on them.
See the Student Sample Paper link below to show you what it should look like in APA format. The library CIte APA Style guide also has formatting information you may find useful (font, spacing, size, etc.) See link below.
