Week Seven - Using Endnote

LECTURE:
This weeks lecture was about Endnote and the referencing system.
Endnote is a database that can be used as a Reference Manager and Biography Maker.
It can be used as a stand-alone program or integrated into Microsoft Word.
You can access Endnote from http://research.ecu.edu.au/grs/resources/endnote.php

Why reference?
To distinguish your ideas from those of others and acknowledge your sources. Also, to enable the reader to follow up if he/she is interested in the source you have used.

Citing or quoting references is when you refer in your text to material written or produced by others.

A Reference List (Bibliography) is an alphabetical list of the books and other references which you have used in your work located at the end of your essay or dissertation.

TUTORIAL:
In this weeks tutorial we had to complete exercises using Endnote. I used five references and entered them into the Endnote system. Below you will see the activities I undertook.
