Some titles should be underlined, whereas others are italicized or have quotation marks around them. It all depends upon the type of work it is. Most of the time students need to memorize the types that need to be underlined or italicized. A simple rule of thumb for some types of works is that smaller work within larger work should be put within quotation marks. In this quiz, the students will determine how the title should be written.
