27. Referencing in Powerpoint presentations
If you quote directly from a source ( a direct quote or images) in a powerpoint slide, you always need to cite the source
usually by including a note at the bottom of the slide
try to make the text of this note quite small (but still readable), so as not to intrude too much on the content of the slide
<click>

28. Referencing images
Images from sources other than clip art must be acknowledged
usually with a note under the image, whether this be in an essay, report, presentation or web page
