1. Referencing Harvard APA (6th ed.)

2. Referencing Academic writing requires you to understand the ideas and writing of other people. You should always acknowledge the work of others Referencing your source material also allows your readers to find your sources and read them for themselves It stops you plagiarising! Chichester College uses Harvard APA 6 th edition, following the style used at the University of Portsmouth

3. Harvard referencing In the main part of your essay you need to detail clearly the surname of the author you are quoting from and the year their work was published (add a page number if appropriate) – citation The reader should then be able to cross-reference this to a more detailed list at the end - reference list

4. Direct quotes Use the exact words from the book or web page Keep them brief, just a few words or a couple of sentences Put quotation marks around the quote Add a citation and reference to show where you found the information

5. Indirect quotes It is better to rewrite the information you find in your own words You can summarise or paraphrase the information You still need to provide a citation and reference as you didn’t create the original information yourself

6. Summarising To summarise you need to give a brief overview of the information Include the main idea and key points in your own words It should be much shorter than the original writing

7. Paraphrasing To paraphrase you need to completely rewrite the information in your own words It shows what you know and understand about the subject It should be about the same length as the original information

8. How to avoid plagiarising – and last minute panics Good record keeping and note taking are essential to this process Do not copy and paste from the internet into your notes Read the article, make your own notes and use these for your assignment Make sure you collect the information you need to reference the webpage Have a system to keep track of your sources of information Write a reference for every source you think you might use You can collect these by using a spreadsheet, document, sheets of paper or cards
