Referencing BasicsA reference is found within the text of an

Why Reference?Referencing acknowledges information
sources which are used whenever you do a piece of work
Referencing allows your reader to find the source of your information
You can lose marks if you do not reference accurately and consistently
If you do not use referencing to acknowledge your sources you will be guilty of plagiarism which can bring disciplinary action

Referencing from a Teacher’s Point of View....It determines if the information you have relied
on is old or new, from the UK or abroad It identifies if you have used subject specialists
in the fieldIt determines whether you have researched the
subject effectivelyIt can be used to identify whether you have
relied heavily on one type of information sourceIt identifies if you have relied too much on
other peoples work – or too little!
