Слайд 5What does it mean to credit sources?
Crediting sources gives an
author or resource credit for original information. Crediting sources in
your paper includes two parts:
In-Text Citations: When you present information in the body of your paper, you briefly identify its source.
Reference List: On a separate page at the end of your paper, you write a detailed list of the sources cited in your paper.
The in-text citations and reference list should credit the exact same sources.
Слайд 6Why credit sources?
Acknowledge authors for their ideas
Avoid plagiarism
Increase credibility and
transparency
Join an ongoing academic discussion
Become a part of the academic
community
Слайд 7What should you credit?
Any information that you learned from another
source including facts, statistics, opinions, theories, photographs, and charts
Credit these
sources when you mention their information in any way (quotations, summaries, paraphrases)
