I'm supposed to create an opinion portfolio as an assignment, writing 8 different essays and combine them into a portfolio and hand it in. Should I be listing references at the bottom of each opinion essay, or combine all the references on the last page?
(The entire portfolio will end up being approx. 2500 words... each essay being around 350 words.. just over a page per essay when double-spaced)
Again, this should be done according to APA formatting...

You can do either. For legal papers, you normally do it on the page. For other types, you put the references at the end. I don't think you can go wrong with any method.
Here is a site that I like to use for composing the references.

You should cite the author and the year of publication in parenthesis in the body of thework. If it is a direct quotation, also give the page number. You may give the more complete information in a bibliography either at the end of each essay or on one or more pages as a bibliography at the end. If you place all references at the end, you should separate them by chapter/essay.

You should have a "Works Cited" on the last page. If you need more help in citing properly, you can also check out www.sonofcitation.com. It gives tips on APA, MLA and Chicago citation styles.

Go to this site:
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/
It is an APA formating and style guide. It should clear up any questions. I use it all the time.
