Alberto,
Thanks for sharing your fears and worries, We will all face the capstone at some point. I have to do about 60 credits before I get there but I dread the situation. I haven't read any of the items you mentioned but if you post them here then others will be able to read the resources you've already had. As far as I can deduce it is a way of using the information that you have accomplished in previous courses. Since you are an EC student you should take time to familiarize yourself with OWL and practice the steps as you go. Locating Information & Writing with Sources This will help you take the steps in planning you will need to do papers. Also within EC there is a resource called smarthinking were you can submit your essays for review with specific questions its a FREE service so make sure you access it through Excelsior College. This should make you more proficient in writing papers in the APA format. Tips from an Online Writing Instructor Take a deep breath, you've come so far which proves you know the subjects. Keep your books close by so that you can refer to them. I recently discovered Citefast automatically formats citations: APA 6th edition, MLA 7th ed. and Chicago 16th ed. which helps me cite source documents reasonable well.
