The tutorial consists of 4 modules:  Basics, Citing Sources, Reference Citations in the Text, and References. It takes about 30 minutes to go through all the modules.  I thought the tutorial was well done and will put links to it in Citation & Research Help section of  the Psych & Education Research guides. Users take the poll at the end of the tutorial - there is one for Harvard Users (Harvard access only) and one for Non-Harvard users (open)". They  use the feedback to continue supporting and developing the tutorial.
