Dear Module 1 friends,
My special wishes to you and to all your loved ones to have an ideal Christmas..an occasion that is celebrated as a reflection of your values, desires, affections, and traditions. May you have a Christmas that is more special than it has ever been. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!
I am wondering why all are so quiet and not sharing anything on your blogs after 4th December?? I was little disappointed as there were no inputs or ideas or experiences being shared. Having said that,let me express my thoughts on the new learning..the in-text citation. The key leanings are:
1.Whether you use a quotation or paraphrased materiel you must cite the source that gave you information.
2.You must provide the last name of the author,followed by the year of publication and the page number.
3. It can be confusing as to when to use present/past tense? In most cases when you are referring to what an author says, you conclude in present tense and if you think that the author has found something(in past) as a part of his/her case study use past tense.
4.Always make sure the reader knows which citation belongs to which sentence, and each part of the citation is separated with commas, then add the period at the end.
5. when you simply making a general statement you don't need page number but be sure you include author and year as a grammatical part of the sentence or include it in the parenthetical citation at the end of the sentence.
6. when you are doing research, and when the material is in front of you, please cite it there and then,if you think you are going back you will be simply doubling your work, and you will definitely miss something. So the best way is to 'Cite while you write'.
Important Notification: myUniHub will be unavailable from 9 am Monday 19th December to 1am 21st December as a part of a University wide IT project.
Hope this helps!! Do comment!!
