In this scenario, poor citation skills led to a breach of academic integrity: plagiarism. Help yourself by:
- Practice your citation skills with the "Building Citations in APA Style" tutorial.
- Know the requirements of the citation style you're using. Refer to the Citing Your Sources citation guide.
- Proofreading your work to match the in-text citations with you references.
- Book an appointment at the Tutoring Centre with a Reference and Citation specialist.
- Starting your assignments early. You're more likely to make a mistake if you're working on something at the last minute.
