Usually the author’s last name and publication date are enough for the reader to identify the complete reference in the references list. See the examples below for variations of this general rule.

...by the due date. This guide has been written especially for you, new and returning Federation University Australia (FedUni) students, to demystify referencing and provide numerous practical examples of when and how referencing should be used in your writing at FedUni. As you study, you’ll come to understand that referencing is just a set of rules that you need to follow to adequately acknowledge the work and thinking of others in your assignments. These rules are important because they allow your teachers to decide whether you’ve demonstrated that you understand the topic at hand and show that you have completed the assignment yourself. If you ignore the requirements to reference source materials in your assignment, your teacher may decide you have committed ‘plagiarism’. This means you have failed to reference according to the rules and in doing so, not demonstrated that you have used the work of others in your work. Plagiarism is a very serious matter that can result in unpleasant consequences for your studies and career. So please take the time to understand the advice we have prepared for you in this guide. Referencing is not just about following the rules; it also provides an elegant and powerful way to add weight to your arguments. Your opinions and conclusions will create more impact if they are supported by leading researchers and writers in your field. Continually improving these skills as you continue your studies will serve you well...

...specific (for the bibliographical references could be too difficult to find). Of course, it must be a topic in Economics, either micro (study of one or several firms in an industry in (set of) countries, for example) or macro (the Economic development of a market, of an industry, or an economic area). Some social phenomenons can be analyzed from an economic point of view (life styles and consumption; demography and labor market; for examples). Your subject can be linked with your dissertation topic (or, at today, the domain you consider you could cover in your dissertation), but of course it’s not an obligation. I remind you that you must submit me your topic for my agreement. Indicative length: It’s not easy to give a precise indication, as it depends of the subject. Some subjects need more long descriptions, and some other ones, more synthetic and/or more theoretical, require less length. As an indication, I can say that under 10 pages (around 3500 words) it’s impossible to make a good essay. More than 25 pages (9000 words) would certainly be too long for the quantity of work you should spend on it. But it also depends The possible annexes (special documents, like reproduction of large figures or pages of information which would be too long in the text) are not included in this length. Bibliographical references: First: don’t forget that the research of good sources is a long work. Plan the research in your time table! Look for many references, read the...

This gives you the full details of the source and should enable it to be traced. Bibliography: a list of relevant items you have used in preparation of the assignment but are not necessarily cited in the text. 2. HOW TO CITE IN YOUR TEXT 2.1 Authors If you are citing an author, there are two ways; direct and indirect. If you use direct then you would use it as a direct reference to an authors work. If it is indirect then you are using a statement more in your own words and then referencing the authors afterwards and usually in brackets. 2.1.1 Direct To cite an author directly, use one of the below layouts: • One author = Beaumont (2002, pp.33-35) states that … • More than one...

...system. At the Department of Lifelong Learning you are required to use the Harvard referencing system. The following guide tells you why you need to use a referencing system, shows you how to insert references in the text of your assignments, and shows you how to compile a reference list. While there are many variations on the ‘Harvard’ system, the one presented in this guide is the most simple. It does away with most usages of ‘p’ and ‘pp’ to signify page numbers and it replaces some of the commas with colons. Also, this guide is by no means an exhaustive list of all the referencing conventions that you will require in your academic life. Why you should use a referencing system As a part of an academic community, it is important that you show the reader where you have used someone else’s ideas or words. Failure to properly reference using the Harvard system may make the reader think that you are cheating by claiming someone else’s work as your own. In the academic environment, we call this plagiarism and it is seen as a very serious offence. Please remember that plagiarism is not just when you directly copy words from another student’s or expert’s work. Plagiarism also occurs when you re-word someone else’s ideas in your own work and you do not give credit to the original source. Plagiarism can have disastrous consequences for students. If you are suspected of plagiarism you may find that your assignment receives a grade of zero. In extreme or repeated cases, you may find that...

...Word’s References Tool MS Word 2007, 2010, and 2013 have a fairly simple tool that will create properly formatted citations and references. The “References” tool is accessed through the “References” tab above the Ribbon (the section with all of the buttons across the top of the screen). As you find each source of information that you will be using in your writing, input the information about the source (author, name of the book, article, Web page, etc.) into Word’s References tool. These instructions will be using a journal article as the example, but they will also inform you how to use other sources such as books, Web sites, and more. Now that you have a journal article in hand follow these steps: 1. Click on the “References” tab near above the ribbon at the top of your screen. 2. In the References ribbon that opens, select your writing style. In our example we will be using “APA 5th Edition” even though the most current APA manual edition is the 6th edition. 3. Next select “Manage Sources.” 4. In the window that will open, select “New.” 5. In the next window, click in the box in the lower left corner that is labeled, “Show all Bibliography Fields.” 6. Now open the drop down arrow in the “Type of Source” window and select your type of source. In this example we are using a Journal Article. 7.

...subject • To understand alternative viewpoints so it is possible to compare and contrast ideas. Textbooks are acceptable reading for introductory courses and early years of study. In later years you will find that textbooks can provide the basis for understanding of an area of study. However, you are also expected to refer to current research published in academic journals. Do not confuse scholarly electronic sources with other kinds of information available on the web. Many web-based sources are useful, for example, the internet has excellent data about organisations (often written by the firms themselves). There is lots of valuable secondary data, such as economic/market/ population/etc. statistics from official and policy bodies. However, there are many dangers with relying on the internet for data. You must therefore use with caution. Examples of poor information on the web are: • open-source information, such as Wikipedia – these have no quality control measures, so you cannot know if the source is accurate or robust. You should therefore avoid open-source sites in assessed work. • newspaper and other media articles can be very informative but they usually comprise opinion or a political or social slant so be aware of this when you use them Referencing In all academic writing Referencing is essential.
