Synopsis 

Academic citation is an integral part of tertiary education. Not only should you be familiar with the various citation styles available, you should also be able to cite accurately, for failure to do so would result in plagiarism. This workshop takes you through the APA style which is most frequently used in SUSS. While there will be a strong focus on how to cite and reference different sources, including ideas from generative AI tools, you will also learn how to incorporate quotes or paraphrase them in your essay. More importantly, you will appreciate the importance of attributing your sources in your assignments.
