| I have difficulty dealing with source referencing and making a good bibliography (E2, E11, E12, E15). You should not be discouraged to incorporate the concepts of others in your thinking. On the contrary, you must refer to the proper sources in the correct manner. At all times, you should avoid plagiarism: presenting ideas of others, as if they are your own. Not everything is plagiarism, though: Writing down common knowledge; • Quoting of quantitative data (graphics and tables), if you place the source directly below the graphics or table; • Quoting a number of sentences from another author, put in brackets, and directly followed by a correct reference; • Paraphrasing: writing down an argument in your own words, your opinion, or a conclusion of another author, followed by a reference. • Your text should have a bibliography in which all sources used for and referred to in the report are listed (see Skill Sheet E15; see downloads on the website) • Consult Skill Sheet E11 and E12 for detailed instructions on references for various types of situations in your texts (see downloads on the website for examples).
