References
All assessed work must be correctly referenced throughout the assignment AND at the end of the assignment within a “References” section. Assignments MUST include at least two references. One reference MUST be a scientific research paper reference (you may use Galileo to locate a reference for this requirement). Internet references MUST be an active link to the actual page referenced (if it is not an active link then it will be considered to be incorrectly referenced). References MUST be placed within the text to show which parts were referenced (citing source, page number, paragraph number) and quoted material MUST be placed within quotation marks, in addition to the reference list at the end of the assignment. An example of an in-text reference would be “Welcome to the study of one of the most fascinating subjects possible – your own body” (Marieb, Pg1, Para1). Invalid references are unacceptable, whether intentional or not, and can result in a grade of zero for that assignment and/or be viewed as a form of cheating. The “references” section at the end of your assignment (may also be termed bibliography) MUST use the following style:
- For a book or manual:
- Title of book, Edition number, Chapter number and title, Section heading, Page numbers, Paragraph number, Year of publication, Publisher name, ISBN.
- For scientific papers:
- Author names (Surname, First Initial.), (Year – in parentheses). Title of article. Journal name, volume number, page numbers (x-y).
- For internet references:
- Title of site, Date site was referenced, Title of subheading within site where reference was made to, web address (as an active link that when clicked will take me directly to that site).
