My assistant principal is working on a disertation and would like to know the correct way to cite information from an Appendix using APA style. I put brackets around the part that needs to be cited. Much of the original literature, Modern Education For The Junior High School Years (Van Til, 1961), Making Education Special for All Young Adolescents (Knight, 1997), and the like, centered on the social and emotional development of middle schoolers. The literature gave great attention to how schools should deal with the newly researched findings on adolescents. In particular, James Beane, in his book Middle School Curriculum (1993) states that the middle school should meet the needs of students focusing primarily on personal and social concerns. [Bearne issued a very challenging mandate for the middle schools to give a great deal of attention to the social and physical needs of these students (p.7). Appendix A lists the areas Dr. Beane has established for his curriculum that addresses young adolescents' needs and interests.] There are middle schools who are sincere and committed to those mandates from Dr. Beane and have been addressing them in their curriculum reforms. Others are developing research projects to describe best practices and then development curriculum reform to match and expand the social, emotional agenda to encompass intellectual and physical needs as well. The suggestion is that "middle schools can, at the same time, reap both the benefits of genuine student-centered, integrative curriculum and instruction (Beane, 1993,1997) and also develop competencies in state-mandated standards so that students can make acceptable scores on typical standard-based tests"[Richardson, 2000 #87 p.1].
