First-Year Information Literacy Program: ARPL 1015_8th Module_Referencing In-Person

  • In the previous module, we explored plagiarism and how to avoid it 🚫✍️. Now, let's take the next step—referencing—which ensures you acknowledge your sources and maintain academic integrity 🎓📚.

  • 🔍 Before You Reference: Assess Your Sources
    After retrieving your research materials, it's essential to evaluate them critically 🧐. Your academic success depends on:
    ✅ Understanding your assignment requirements 📄
    ✅ Effectively analyzing and selecting relevant information 🔍✏️
    ✅ Using research to build strong, well-supported arguments 💡📚

    Writing an assignment isn’t just about correct grammar and structured paragraphs—it’s about demonstrating comprehension, critical thinking, and proper source integration 🏗️📖.

    ✍️ Referencing: The Key to Academic Success
    Referencing is the process of giving credit to the original authors of the sources you use. It allows your readers to trace your research path and validates your arguments. In this unit, we focus on the Harvard referencing style 📚🔤, which is widely used for academic writing.

  • Venue: West Studio in JM
