References

=References=

Referencing is a standardised method of acknowledging sources of information that you have used in your assignment work in a way that uniquely identifies their source. Direct quotations, facts and figures, as well as ideas and theories, from both published and unpublished works must be referenced. There are several accepted ways to referencing material, the most common being the [|Harvard] style which we shall use throughout the course, here are some examples of how to [|cite references] from different sources of information.

**Difference between a Bibliography and a list of References:**
A reference list only includes books, articles etc that are [|cited] in the text. A bibliography is a list containing the sources used in developing a publication and other sources the author considers might be of use or interest to the reader.

Creating a reference list
The reference list is arranged alphabetically by author. Where an item has no author it is cited by its title, and ordered in the reference list or bibliography alphabetically by the first significant word of the title.
