Correct entry type for slide in unpublished student reader? #100

Dear Peter, thank you very much for your work for bib latex and apa, which I am trying to use for a master thesis. After considerable time of searching I cannot find a correct entry type for referencing a slide without author of an unpublished student reader by my professor.

This is the given information: Slide title: Dimensions of change Author: not given! (the professor did not reference the content of this specific slide) Year: not given for the content of this specific slide

Document title: Elective Module Transformation Management and Change Author/Editor: Martina Eberl Document: Student Reader Institution: Berlin Professional School Year: 2019

The entry type that comes closest to my needs is 10.5:63 (In: http://ftp.fau.de/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-apa/biblatex-apa-test.pdf)

Unfortunately neither this nor any other I looked through references a specific! content (slide, chapter, etc.) of a presentation or other type of unpublished work or presentation etc., but only the work in general.

What I got trying out the 10.5:63 is: Entry type: INPROCEEDINGS{Eberl2019, AUTHOR = {}, EDITORA = {Eberl, Martina}, EDITORATYPE = {chair}, TITLE = {Dimensions of change}, MAINTITLE = {Elective Module: Transformation Management and Change}, MAINTITLEADDON = {Student Reader / Intake 2018 Berlin Part-time MBA},

Result in Reference list: Dimensions of change. (n.d.). In M. Eberl (Chair), Elective module: transformation man- agement and change [Student reader / intake 2018 berlin part-time mba].

Questions:

Thank you very much in advance for giving a hand. I am not a programmer nor have a lot of experience so have already spent several hours on figuring out the problem unsuccessfully.

Best regards, David
