This article shares the design considerations, implications, and data analysis of an MLA citation online module created using Softchalk e-learning software. Based on research on how to best meet the needs of the diverse, multilingual, and English language learner students at the author’s college, key to the module’s design was using a “flipped” approach, ease of use for students as well as faculty, multiple types of review activities, and a positive rhetorical frame of participation in a scholarly community. Statistical analysis of data collected showed the module to be effective, especially for students who knew little about MLA citation to begin with and implies that such modules may help to close gaps in student knowledge created by cultural and linguistic bias.
