Referencing the work of others

Referencing the work of others

Some coursework consists of a written report or essay in which you are required to read relevant literature and to submit a report. It is extremely important that all your coursework is original; all reports, even when they are only a couple of sentences, need to reference the sources that have been used to construct the report. In some cases, direct quotations may be taken from the literature and included in the report. It is vitally important that these are clearly referenced. In certain (rare) circumstances it may be permissible for students to work together to produce separate individual reports and, in these cases; some sections of the reports may be common. These sections must be clearly identified.
