To identify parts of reference list entries
To learn where to get more help with referencing
Useful online resources to support you with your learning
Campus tour for students who missed it
Note: Students who came to last week’s tutorial said that they would like to get lots of help with APA referencing. That’s fine – you just need to bring your questions about this to these tutorials. For example, if you are working on an assignment and you don’t know how to reference a source, bring the book or show me the website / online source on your device (or it to me) and we will look at this in the tutorial.

3. Examples of “Quote” and Paraphrase
“There is growing awareness that students’ performance, even in higher education, can be improved through training in relevant academic skills” (Cottrell, 2001, p. 9).
Paraphrasing:
It is accepted that learning academic skills improves the performance of tertiary level students (Cottrell, 2001, p. 9).
Cottrell (2001) observes that when tertiary level students acquire academic study skills their performance improves (p. 9).
Paraphrasing help: Massey University’s OWLL site
and Wintec’s Academic Learning Resources

6. How to reference nursing texts
APA guide for nursing (Click on this link) or:
Look at library page (go to Library Guides, then
APA Referencing, then Nursing guide)
Chapter from an edited book
Hales, M. (2015). Community health nursing. In A. Berman, S. Snyder, T. Levett-Jones, T. Dwyer, M. Hales, N. Harvey, D. Stanley (Eds.), Kozier and Erb's fundamentals of nursing (3rd Australian ed., Vol. 1, pp ). Melbourne, Australia: Pearson.
This example shows how to reference a chapter from an edited book. The format is the following:
Author and initials, Year of publication, Title of chapter. In names of editors (Eds.), Title of book, details of edition, volume and page range of the chapter, place of publication, name of publisher.

7. Nursing sources continued
Nursing Council of New Zealand. (2012). Code of conduct. Retrieved from
New Zealand Nurses Organisation. (2010). Code of ethics. Retrieved from
(Click on Core Documents, then choose Code of Ethics)
ACTIVITY: 6 groups have an envelope each. Put the parts of the webpage reference in the correct order.
Check all together and then check on the PPT slide.

8. Use of abbreviations in-text
Use an organisation’s name in full the first time and give the abbreviation. Second and subsequent times, use the abbreviation. Eg The New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO, 2010) is an organisation that exists to…. (p. 3). OR ……………. (New Zealand Nurses Organisation [NZNO], 2010, p. 3). Then: …………… (NZNO, 2010, p. 5).
Note about abbreviations: The first time you mention an organisation in full, you can give the abbreviation and then use it from then on.
The Nursing Council of New Zealand is abbreviated to: NCNZ. Note that when the author’s name is in parentheses, then the abbreviation must go in square brackets (as in the second example above.)
