How to Avoid Plagiarism
The best (only) defence against plagiarism is proper referencing
![Page 8: Using Sources and Referencing Student Learning Advisory Service Gina May](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081507/5681642d550346895dd5f36b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why do you need to Reference?To develop good academic
practiceTo show which ideas are not your
own To demonstrate your
reading/research To demonstrate understanding of
the topic To let the reader know where the
facts and ideas have come fromTo allow tutor to check detailsTo avoid the problem of
Plagiarism!

What Do I Need to Reference?
Basically, everything....
Any idea, fact, concept, theory, opinion, snippet, etc...
It does not have to come from a book
You MUST show where everything has come from
Always acknowledge the work of other people
