Week-8


CITATION & DOCUMENTING INFORMATION SOURCES

For this week was the same like the previous week but a little details about APA citation. The lecturer gave us more exercises on this lesson for understanding more about the lesson.We did an exercise in the class it was a bit ok.after doing the exercise our douts was cleared.some parts i couldn't so  I asked more about this lesson in the tutorial class.

 we came to know how to -
  • Summarizing - Summaries are significantly shorter than the original and take a broad overview of sources material.                              
  • Paraphrasing - Putting a passage from source material into your own words.
  • Quoting- Use the author's words exactly and the quotation marks only for short quotations.
  • Referencing- A note in a publication referring the reader to another passage or source.


We was so confused of doing our  APA report but after this lesson we got to know the way how to do that and also from this lesson we came to know how to write reference to our report .
