week 7

Lecture
In this weeks lecture we looked endnote a computer program. Endnote is a program designed to make referencing alot easy for students conduction essays, reports or any type of paper you have to complete in a particular unit for every assignment needs to provide proof of where your information has come from.

Our lecture explained that we should use the standalone program of endnote for it is the easiest form to start with for a research project. Once a student has their reference information prepared, for example and author, title, year, place published etc, they type the information into endnote in the appropriate areas and endnote puts the reference together and saves it automatically. This is how endnote works.

We use endnote because it keeps track of our references in case we want them for future reasons, because it has a variety of paper typed suitable for most referenceing needs and it has an easy search system that allows people to locate references with a particular project when saved in a specific category.

Tutorial
In todays tutorial we had to review an online referencing guide and include examples of referencing from five different types of electronic format material.
