Citation is an essential component of research and writing and avoiding plagiarism.
Start by viewing A (Very) Brief Introduction to Citation from the 'Pack over at NC State University Libraries.
Then, take a look at Why We Cite, The Importance of Being Honest, from the Librarians Morehead State University.
After viewing these two videos, review the document "Citation Vocabulary" and then "Citation Examples" located in the left navigation.
After these tasks, find a partner to discuss "Questions to Consider."
Finally, you will Test Your Citation Knowledge.
The true test will be when you incorporate these skills into your research paper.
