Hanging indent: Indentation style in which the first line begins at the left margin, but subsequent lines are indented by 0.5”. The reference list uses a hanging indent.
Hyperlink: A URL address that appears in blue with underlining is hyperlinked, meaning that the reader may click on it to access the website.
Justified: Text with a smooth left and right margin, with words stretched. Walden prefers, and MS Word defaults to, left justification, with only the left margin smooth.
Page break: An inserting tool in MS Word that will cause a division in the text, moving the next piece of text to the top of a new page (as in front matter or a reference list).
Section break: An inserting tool in MS Word that creates a page break and also a division in the paper, allowing the author to create new page numbers for that section only.
