Modules/Academic |
How do I know which citation style to use? There is no singular style at NUS. So, please check with your module lecturer. I just need to cite a few references. What do you suggest? You can use Zoterobib – easy to use, and no installation needed. Link to Zoterobib. Link to a short video on how to use Zoterobib. How do I cite my own work? If your work has previously established an academic idea, it can be cited. Take your work as the academic literature authored by you and fill in the citation fields accordingly. Is there anything I can do to avoid plagiarising? We have curated and created infographics to help students understand and exercise academic honesty. You can access them here. Centre for Instructional Technology (CIT) also has helpful information on software that can help check for similarity between your paper and previously submitted papers. See Turnitin. See IThenticate. |
