1 Harvard Style

2 Why do you need to reference?  So that you give people credit for there work.  So that you do not plagiarise peoples work.  So that people can check up on the information you have used (for further reading and information)  So you can justify what you are writing about.

3 What do you need to reference?  Quotes  Information (statistics, graphs)  Pictures  Peoples ideas  Basically any source that you use.  Any work that is not yours.

4 The Harvard System  This is the most commonly used referencing system and the one we will learn today.

5 How do you cite in your work?  You simply need to know the author and the year the information was published.  For example: After a quote.  “ ICT must be beneficial to the learning outcomes and must increase productivity. This will then lead to more time being focused on the curriculum. “ (Whale 2010)  You may also want the page number here.

6 Example of stats  You may be writing about statistics:  It has been found that 80% of the local population are against the wind farms (Evening Times 1998). This should mean that the farms would not be built.

7 Example of a picture  ( ECOINSTITUTION.com 2010)

8 That’s the easy bit……  After you have the sources you must have a bibliography or a reference list.
