Right Referencing
Learning Services
Referencing
In this session we will look at:
Why we should reference
Ethical use of information to avoid plagiarism
Appropriate information sources to reference
How to reference correctly
Practical examples
Why Do We Reference?
Correct referencing shows you have read widely and researched
your work correctly.
It also allows the marker to check the accuracy of your
statements by following up your references.
Why Do We Reference?
If you do not reference your work properly it can be interpreted
as plagiarism.
Plagiarism means presenting the words or ideas of someone else
as your own without proper acknowledgement of the source.
This constitutes academic theft and is a serious matter.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism means citing another person’s spoken or written words, ideas or
inventions without referencing them.
If you read something in a book, journal or web page, or hear something in a radio
broadcast or podcast, and you use it in your assignment without referencing it, this
could be considered plagiarism.
This can happen unintentionally and we may not realise that we have failed to credit
the author; however it could be viewed that you are trying to pass off someone else’s
work as your own, and the offence carries severe penalties that may lead to your
expulsion from the programme.
Tip!
DO NOT
Copy chunks of text from the Internet and paste them straight into your work as this can
lead to claims of plagiarism.

Harvard Referencing
Referencing is made up of two parts:
1.
What goes in the text
2. What goes in the bibliography (this is the list at
the end of any piece of work you hand in)
When to reference
You should refer to the source of your information in the appropriate
place in the text.
This should be brief and should only include details of the Author, Date of
Publication and Page Number.
When to reference
For example in the text….
“Until the final decades of the Twentieth Century the idea of childhood as a distinct
and separate social category had been paid very little attention”.
(McDowell Clark, 2010, p.36)
OR
McDowell Clark (2010, p.36) claims that “until the final decades of the Twentieth
Century the idea of childhood as a distinct and separate social category had been
paid very little attention”.
What goes in the bibliography?
The next step is to put together your details in the right format.
This will make up your bibliography
The format used depends on the type of material you used to find your
information
All types of material formats are included in the guide. For the purposes
of today we will look at :
1.
Books

comma and the FIRST INITIAL then a full stop. eg. JONES, K. or ALLAN, S.

surname
•
It is essential to ensure you keep your punctuation consistent in every entry
