Referencing

Once you've written your essay it is very important that you provide a list of the sources that you looked at to get your facts. Below you will find links to files to help you reference your essay:

http://www.box.net/shared/acvn8e7zok this is a list of the websites you looked at with each site (source) numbered.
http://www.box.net/shared/jopc0p91xr this is the list of for & against facts that you were given for the poster exercise, at the bottom you will find a key telling you which facts came from which source.

Once you have worked out which sources you have used, make a list of these sources and attach it to the end of your essay with the title "sources" OR "bibliography".

It will also help your essay appear more academic/professional if, in the body of the essay, you state where you obtained the fact from, e.g.:

"88% of all criminal damage in the UK is caused by alcohol (source 4)."

You can either give the exact webaddress of the fact or simply state which source it refers to in your source list - if you take the numbered approach then remember to number your sources on your source list.
