RESEARCH

• USING ONLY ELECTRONIC RESOURCES

• USE BOOKS! RADIO! TWITTER (AND CHECK SOURCE, OF COURSE!) NEWSPAPERS/MAGS

• USING ONLY ONE SOURCE AT A TIME

• CHECK THE VERACITY AND VALIDITY – WHAT IS THEIR MOTIVE/BIAS? HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU CAN TRUST

THEM?

• SLOPPY PARAPHRASING!

• TWO WORDS CHANGED AND THE REST THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL? STILL COPYING!

REFERENCING

• NOT USING HARVARD REFERENCING (HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=NDGQQPVMN0U)

• NOT CAPTIONING

REMIT

• STICKING TO ‘WHAT YOU KNOW’ RATHER THAN RESEARCHING MORE BROADLY

• NOT TAILORING WHAT YOU SAY TO THE TASK, BUT INSTEAD PROVIDING A GENERIC ACCOUNT BASED TOO

MUCH ON THE RESOURCES
