This is the tutorial to show you how to create a running head for an APA paper. The first thing we do is in our Microsoft Word we go to Insert and Heter. We want a blank header and there it is starting at the top. Now before we do anything we must go to it click on different first page. Now let us insert the running header. Type in running head. Actually not a capital H. And then the title of the paper. I have typed in in all caps short form of the title. You don't need the entire thing. Now we need to insert the page number. We go to page number here. Insert page number. Current position, plain number. Now let's go back one and we will tap until it goes to the right side. Very good. Our first page is done. What we need to do is page down to our second page. Now we will insert the same title of the page. Sister in the current world. And then tab across to there. Again insert page number. Current position, plain number. And there we go. There is our running head at the very very top and at the bottom sister in the current world. And we can see that this header continues throughout the paper. So it's a very simple method. Follow this and you will be able to insert your APA header.
