Referencing & Citation and Avoiding Plagiarism
• What is citation and why do it?
• What is plagiarism and why is it so serious?
• How to avoid it
• How to use other people’s work in your work
• Writing references and bibliographies

What You Should Cite?
• Direct quotes– Part of a sentence, built into your sentences– Long quotes that are introduced by your
sentences– Block quotes (quotes of over 40 words)
• Paraphrases– Somebody else’s idea in your words
![Page 7: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Why Cite References?
• To avoid plagiarism
• To get credit for the research you have done
• To substantiate what you have written
• To enable others to follow up your research
• To give credit to others for their work
• To enable you to go back and check information
![Page 10: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• “The taking of another person’s thoughts, words, results, judgements, ideas, images etc and presenting them as your own” (King’s College London Plagiarism Strategy)
• Direct quotations from published or unpublished works of others (including lecture hand-outs) without proper citation.
• Paraphrasing – expressing another person’s ideas of judgements in other words without proper acknowledgement
What is Plagiarism?
![Page 11: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Reasons Why Students Plagiarise
• Cynical plagiarism
• Time pressure
• Poor notes
• Lack of subject knowledge
• Ignorance of citation rules
![Page 12: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
“Plagiarism is a form of cheating and a serious academic offence. All allegations of plagiarism will be investigated and may result in action being taken under the College’s Misconduct regulations. A substantiated charge of plagiarism will result in a penalty being ordered ranging from a mark of zero for the assessed work to expulsion from the College”.
Kings College Plagiarism Strategy

Avoiding The Pitfalls
•Time management
•Note taking
•Understanding
•Your voice / contribution
![Page 15: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Note Taking• In your notes identify:
–direct quotes (“Q”) and –paraphrases (“P”) or –your own ideas (“Me”)
•Make sure to include –page number, –volume/ issue, –author and –article/book/journal title
•Keep a working bibliography
![Page 16: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Lack Of Understanding
• Not understanding your notes
• Assuming that you should understand the subject and will be “found out” if you ask for help
• Can’t find a way to express an idea better than the original author
![Page 17: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Voice
• Can my reader tell which ideas are mine and which belong to other people?
• Have I represented other peoples work fairly?
• Have I contributed something of my own?

Quoting Tables, Diagrams & Equations
• To correctly reference equations, tables and diagrams you will need to consider the following:
– Equations, diagrams and tables = quotations in the text– Decide which steps of an equation to include and which to leave out
![Page 21: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Citing Secondary Sources
•Reference: U. Bossel Does a Hydrogen Economy Make Sense? Proceedings of the IEEE. Vol. 94, No. 10, October 2006
• E.g. Equations from other people’s work
• If you use a secondary source, make this clear in your citation

Exercise - Extract 1
There are a range of problems faced by minorities in the workplace. First, the selection and recruitment process is biased against them in one form or another. Second, they have very few role models in the work environment, who could mentor them and socialize them towards organizational life. Third, they do not get the feedback they need in terms of performance appraisal to guide them through the turbulent waters of their careers.
![Page 23: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Extract 2
There are a range of difficulties faced by minorities at work. First, the selection and recruitment process is biased against them in some way. Second, they have few role models in the organisational context, who could mentor and socialise them regarding organisational life. Third, they don't get the feedback they need on their performance to guide them through the choppy waters of their careers.
![Page 24: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Extract 3
Arnold et al. suggest that 'There are a range of problems faced by minorities in the workplace. First, the selection and recruitment process in biased against them in one form or another. Second, they have very few role models in the work environment, who could mentor them and socialise them towards organisational life. Third, they do not get the feedback they need in terms of performance appraisal to guide them through the turbulent waters of their careers.'

Extract 4
Arnold et al. (1995 p96) suggest that 'There are a range of problems faced by minorities in the workplace. First, the selection and recruitment process in biased against them in one form or another. Second, they have very few role models in the work environment, who could mentor them and socialise them towards organisational life. Third, they do not get the feedback they need in terms of performance appraisal to guide them through the turbulent waters of their careers.'

Extract 5
Minorities of whatever sort are presented with a number of difficulties in the organisational context. For example, performance appraisal often does not meet their needs in terms of providing guidance on career development. The ways in which organisational personnel are selected and recruited are often characterised by racism, sexism, homophobia etc. Finally, the lack of people of colour, women and other members of minorities in senior positions often mean that those lower down the organisation cannot get the mentoring and socialisation they need at work.
![Page 27: Engineering](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bb68b84a7959e83c8b4630/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Extract 6
Minorities of whatever sort are presented with a number of difficulties in the organisational context. For example, performance appraisal often does not meet their needs in terms of providing guidance on career development. The ways in which organisational personnel are selected and recruited are often characterised by racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Finally, the lack of people of colour, women and other members of minorities in senior positions often mean that those lower down the organisation cannot get the mentoring and socialisation they need at work (Arnold et al., 1995 p96).

A Better Alternative?'Arnold et al (1995: 96) argue that minorities of whatever sort are presented with the following three difficulties in the organisational context. Performance appraisal often does not meet their needs in terms of providing guidance on career development. Further, the ways in which organisational personnel are selected and recruited are often characterised by racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Finally, the lack of people of colour, women and other members of minorities in senior positions often mean that those lower down the organisation cannot get the mentoring and socialisation they need at work.'
