Editor's Notes
- Basics: quick recap on difference between refs and citations, quoting and paraphrasing . Creating references using Library Search and other resources. Getting them right – ensuring that your references comply with Harvard Cite them right Identifying resources – getting the information that you need from a source in order to create a reference Referencing from scratch – your chance to have a go.
- Once you have found information and have used it in your work, we need to think about referencing. Ask students why they need to reference? Take their feedback and then click to show the info below: Highlight and back-up relevant points and facts that you have made in your assignment by quoting, paraphrasing or summarising from an original text. Referencing provides the link between what you write and the evidence on which it is based i.e. establishes the credibility and authority of your ideas and arguments. Demonstrate that you have read widely on the subject by providing evidence of your research Give credit to the original author/creator i.e. Distinguish between your own ideas and opinions and those of others and acknowledging other people’s work which you have used in your assignments. Achieve a better mark or grade: marks are often awarded for the accuracy of your references. Enable the reader (your tutor) to locate the original material you used. Avoid plagiarism.
- You identify the sources that you have used by citing them in the text of your assignment (called citations or in-text citations) – they show the reader where you have got your ideas/information from – you then list them as a full reference in a reference list at the end of your assignment. There are two main ways of using citations in your work – more later. The reference list only includes the sources cited in your text. It is not the same thing as a bibliography, which uses the same referencing style, but also includes all material, for example background readings, used in the preparation of your work.
- You can use citations in two ways in your work. If you mention the author’s name in the text of your writing, then the citation will just be the date of the publication in brackets, unless you quote the exact words (next slide) in which case you will need page numbers as well. If you don’t mention the author’s name(s) in the text, then the citation will consist of the author’s name and the publication date. You will then have a full reference to the publication in your reference list.
- Quoting: Use when the original wording conveys the idea perfectly Use author’s exact words Put “quotation marks” around the author’s words Refer to the author in text or in the citation and include book/journal in reference list Also include page number in citation Paraphrasing: Present the author’s ideas in your own words Still need to refer to the author….the words are yours, but the idea is theirs
- Any ideas?
- Answers.
- How would this be different to a book reference?
- Answers.
- Referencing is easy if you find information on Library Search, because you can create references for the things that you find.
- However you will need to check the references against Cite Them Right Online to make sure they are perfect.
- References created this way will also need to be checked against Cite Them Right Online.
- Library Search references are almost correct, so just need a bit of tinkering. In the case of this book- the authors first names should be displayed as initials and not in full, the date should be in brackets and the edition should be shown as edn not ed.
