- In this video, we'll teach you how to use the hanging indent option in Microsoft Word.
Hanging indent is used for formatting your document, whether creating bibliographies or reference pages. It’s an indentation of the second and subsequent lines of text in a paragraph and is majorly used for APA, MLA and other writing standards.
Over here, we have a reference list in APA style and we need to format it with a hanging indent. There are two ways we can use it. One is by using the Paragraph Setting options and the other is by simply using the ruler.
The reference list here has not formatting and each reference is added in a separate line.
➡️ Now let’s highlight the text that we want to format. In the home tab, within the paragraph section, you can see the expanding arrow icon over here. Click on it to open up the paragraph settings window.
➡️ Over here, under the Indentation Section, select Hanging from the Special drop-down menu. Click on Ok to close the paragraph settings window, and you can see that the text has been formatted.
➡️ Alternatively, you can do this by using the ruler as well. For that, let’s move to the “View” tab from the ribbon on-top and select the Ruler option here. Once the grid appears, you can see that the top marker, at the left side is the First Line Indent, and the bottom marker, is the hanging indent.
➡️ If you move the top marker, it will indent the first line of the paragraph, and similarly if you move the bottom marker, it will indent the second line for reach paragraph.
That’s all!

Thanks to your team, and my instructor Sean for sharing the video with me, Indentation refers to an opening guide for me, between the left-hand margin and the beginning of text on the page or screen. Like font choice and line spacing, indentation might seem like a trivial formatting decision, but, when I use the indentation effectively it makes my writing more professional-looking and easier to read. I have a reference list in APA style and need to format it with a hanging indent. for my essays, Navigating the online learning management system takes a little practice. This tutorial is extremely helpful, and I will need it for assignments this week. As a student at GCU (Grand Canyon University), I am studying for a bachelor's in science of health care administration. It is a challenge for me to success, but the teacher provides online tools support such as Halo walk to class video series, tutorials tips APA (American Psychological Association) information, discussion forums, participation of posts and other material to make me successful. to do my assignments.

my word doesn't have the small arrow to open the paragraph window
mine doesn't either
@@kaitlynlam9543 If you go onto format then click paragraph it will open that for you
@@amygraham8986 I don’t have that small arrow either to open the paragraph. And I don’t see format anywhere.
@@amygraham8986 so what I did was type “where is paragraph” in the help area (“tell me” tab ). And it got me to the paragraph area
THIS IS HELPFUL. Thank you so much! God bless you and have a great day :)🤍
