- There are loads of different types of information available on the internet, anything from social media and crowd sourced resources such as Wikipedia to organisational or academic sources. You need to be really critical of information that you find on the Internet and consider the provenance of the information i.e. who created it, when and why? Good for: Easy to use/search All subjects covered Can be very up-to-date Mobile Not so good for: No editorial control Unreliable sources Can be created by anyone Material can lack provenance Can be out-of-date Not everyone has access
- Don’t forget to have a look at the list of references or bibliographies that appear at the end of book chapters, journal articles or other sources of information that you find. These can provide valuable sources of further information as they will be related to the subject that you are searching.
- Keywords are words or phrases that describe content you are searching for
- Can do in groups writing down keywords and after 5-10 mins sharing back to the group OR from the front of the class with flip chart and volunteer to write the keywords as they are called out by the class and discussed What can you see in the picture…fruit If type ‘fruit’ into database will get millions of hits, how can you break it down ie. search for something more specific to get more manageable results Can you be more specific ie. Type of fruit: apples, oranges, bananas etc Location: Stall, market, outdoor market, fruit market, Britain Detail: boxes, signs, astroturf, prices, colour of fruit, lights, pound £ signs, special offer etc People in background: old, young, male, female > stall holder, customers, browsers etc Think of related subjects eg. retail, commercial, financial, point-of-sale Shopping, shops, fish/meat/clothes market, shopping centres, high street Town, city, centre, British town Nutrition: vitamins and minerals Also: Words with more than one meaning Orange or Blackberry: fruit NOT telephone Apple: fruit NOT computer Thinking beyond the obvious, looking for the detail that might make a difference.

- Keep up with recent developments in any area of research, save items in a personal library The difference between Google and Google Scholar is that Google Scholar focuses on the scholarly literature available on the Internet. ... Google, on the other hand, has a broader scope, and retrieves resources regardless of where online they come from. Suggest the students try out Library Search or Google Scholar – 5-10 mins ??

- Citations are in text references to other pieces of information you have used They are then listed at the end of the piece of work in the Reference List A "citation" is the way you tell your tutor that certain material in your work came from another source. It also gives your tutor the information necessary to find that source again, including: information about the author. the title of the work. Quoting: Use when the original wording conveys the idea perfectly Use author’s exact words Put “quotation marks” around the author’s words Refer to the author in text and include book/journal in reference list Paraphrasing: Present the author’s ideas in your own words Still need to refer to the author….the words are yours, but the idea is theirs Reference Put a full reference in the alphabetical reference list at the end of your piece of work
- It's very important to reference your work correctly. Cite Them Right will help you to reference just about any source using the APA referencing style. There are different referencing styles but you will be asked to use the APA – American Psychological Association style Don’t forget you can get references from library search too
- What do you think about this quote by Abraham Lincoln? Is there anything wrong with it?
- Essay mills, essay writing services aka contract cheating are unethical business Not illegal under UK law but against university regulations (see later) Normally they claim only to be providing examples and in small print say must not be handed in as own work, but offer 1st class work at a higher price and will write entire dissertations, so hardly examples. Often high charges but no way to tell if the work is actually any good unless submitted. Claim it will pass Turnitin as original, but how do you know what you have paid for? (just as if you buy a fake pair of trainers which fall apart in a week) Normally have a small print get out clause saying money back if not satisfied but not applicable if the essay is submitted as course work. Hard sell techniques via internet, social media, email, flyers handed out in the street or left in rooms (even the library) This causes distress to honest students but also plays on fears of students who may be finding university challenging. The University has rules on cheating to protect you from these companies. Middlesex University has strict rules which ban the use of purchased essays
- There are risks associated with buying coursework such as essays, dissertations and projects from essay writing services such as the one on the screen. It’s cheating and against University Rules and there are serious consequences: We will stop students using it to get an unfair advantage You may waste your money paying for poor quality work which gets you worse results You may find yourself open to blackmail by the essay writing company: They know you have paid for their services and may then ask for more money or threaten to tall the University what you have done. You could be suspended or lose your place at University because of your academic misconduct. This is very serious and……. ……..could mean your degree is cancelled later in life ……..could have a negative impact on your future career prospects, as your employer might then fire you.
- Report it: If you are approached by a company or person who wants to sell you coursework or essays; or you find flyers on campus regards these services, then report it to your module leader. Stop and think: If you are tempted to buy coursework or essays, then stop and think carefully about the consequences of doing so. You will be found out and you could damage your future prospects as a result. Get help: If you are tempted to buy coursework because you are struggling with your academic work or there are other problems in your personal life, then get help: Academic Writing drop-in 12:00-15:00 Monday to Friday in StudyHub Ask a Librarian 09:00-17:00 Monday to Friday in StudyHub You can also make a 1-1 appointment with our librarians and academic writing experts.
