 Image for citation and referencingCite them right teaches students the principles of referencing and avoiding plagiarism and supports them in creating accurate references.

Cite them right comprises an hour-long, interactive eLearning referencing tutorial (broken into 5 minute segments), guides to each of the standard referencing styles, advice about referencing and plagiarism, as well as a tool to help students reference 150+ sources.

This comprehensive resource has been developed from the bestselling book Cite them right by Richard Pears and Graham Shields.

It’s a simple process to find out how to construct a reference correctly:

  • Students choose a source to reference from the drop-down menu or search facility
  • Cite them right shows them how to create the reference in the style they need
  • There are examples to copy, and a ‘You try’ box so they can build their reference on screen
  • Students can check these against a correct example
  • They can cut and paste the prepared reference straight into their work.

Cite them right means students are actively engaged in building their own references: they learn the academic principles behind referencing, as well as producing relevant results.
