Giving credit

You give credit to your sources by:
  • including short citations within the text of your assignment
    AND
  • attaching to the end of your assignment,
    • a Bibliography or list of all the books, Websites, etc. you consulted – WHETHER OR NOT you used them directly in your assignment
    • OR

    • a References List or list of all the books, Websites, etc. you consulted – AND used directly in your assignment.

You use a source "directly in your assignment" when you:

  • quote someone else's ideas or data word-for-word
    AND/OR
  • paraphrase - or put into your own words - someone else's ideas or data

If you have any questions as to the type of credits list required,

ask your lecturer!
