MODULE 3

Footnote & Endnote

INTRODUCTION
Footnote and endnote can be considered advanced learning in word processing because it
needs a bit of learning first the basics in word. Like spacing, indention, and the like for you to have a
better grasp in footnoting and endnote. This particular activity in word processing is very common
when you are doing your research paper or term in a school activity. Both footnotes and endnotes
are common writing tool features implemented when using various citation styles. It provides
writers with a clear method in directing the reader to further information on the research topic and
additional citations. Though the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, footnotes and endnotes
have a few key differences.

In this module, you are guided with a set of learning icons that will help you

Footnotes and Endnotes

Footnotes and endnotes provide referencing information for a specific text in a document.
Footnotes appear at the bottom of the page on which the reference mark appears; endnote at the
end of a section or document.

Inserting Footnote

The following explains how to insert a footnote on a page:

1. Click in the document at the location where you want the footnote reference mark to
appear.
e.g. the higher will be the level of income. The cursor must position after the
period then follow step 2.
2. Click the Reference Tab.
3. In the Footnote group, click Insert Footnote.

HANDS-ON # 1 Inserting Footnote

The “Keynesian Theory” of Income Determination considers the central problem in macro-
economics as the determination of income and employment of a nation as a whole. That is why
modern economists also called macro-economic as the Theory of Income Determination. Keynesian
believes that in the short run the level of income of an economy depends on the level of
employment. The highest level of employment, the higher will be the level of income.1 The theory
supports the present study. It tries to explain the benefits of employment-focused livelihood
projects which are also assumed to employ the community.
The Geographical Theory postulated that poor countries are poor because of geographic
location. This also a left-wing theory; and it claims strategic geographic location is the key to
development. Things like access to the ocean, navigable rivers, fertile soil, and raw materials.2 The
theory tries also to explain the study in terms of the location.
Another is Adam's Equity Theory. This equity theory states that people are motivated when
they are treated equitably, and receive what they consider fair for their effort and cost. The theory
suggested by Adam (1995) and based on Social Exchange Theory.3 According to this theory, people
compare their contribution to work costs of their activities and the benefits that will result to the
contribution and benefits of the reference person.
