  1. HARVARD REFERENCING (AUTHOR AND DATE SYSTEM)

  2. PURPOSE OF REFERENCING When you are writing a piece of academic work, you will be researching and reading a lot of work done by others to help you formulate your ideas and arguments. You need acknowledge where you found the information not only because it is fair to give credit to the person whose hard work you are using, but also to avoid plagiarism.

  3. Components to referencing There are two components to referencing: • in-text citations in your paper • the reference list at the end of your paper.

  4. End Reference Section The reference section of your work should include all the information about the source of a statement that you used in your essay. References Cohen, L., Manion, L. and Morrison, K. (2011) Research Methods in Education 7th edn. London: Routledge Pritchard, A. (2009) Ways of learning. Learning Theories and Learning Styles in the Classroom, 2nd edn. Oxon: Routledge

  5. An example: Organizing your reference list References Cohen, L., Manion, L. and Morrison, K. (2011) Research Methods in Education 7th edn. London: Routledge Pears, R. and Shield, G.

In your reference list or bibliography, you should only give the details of the source in which you found the ideas. In the above example, you would include the work by Carol, 2001. You should always try to track down the original work, but if this is not possible and you intent to cite the ideas of one author that you have found in the work of another, your in-text citation must include the author of the ideas you are using, the source in which you found them, and the page number. figure

  23. What is the difference between a reference list and a bibliography? A reference list is a list of all the information sources that you have cited in your text. A bibliography is a list of items that you have read, and has informed your thinking, but not specifically cited in your assignment.

  24. NUMERIC REFERENCING

  25. Numeric Referencing • Numeric style and is mainly used by some engineering students. • You should only use one style consistently all over your work. • A good practice in keeping track of your research is to make a list of references you consulted when you BEGIN your research process.

  26. Listing numeric references at the end of your work: The list of numbers are arranged in numerical order at the end of your work in the order they appeared in the text. Never cite a source based on an abstract or you have not seen in full. You should always try to track down the original source. The most popular numeric referencing is the Vancouver numeric referencing.

  27. Vancouver Numeric Referencing In the Vancouver Style, a number is assigned to each reference as it is used. Even if the author is named in your text, a number must still be used. The original number assigned to the reference is used each time that reference is cited in the text. The first reference you cite will be numbered 1 in the text, and the second reference you cite will be numbered 2, and so on. References are listed in numerical order in a bibliography at the end of your report.The references in the bibliography must follow a set format
