Please check your Subject Outline, assessment guides or with your subject lecturers regarding the appropriateness of the various types of sources that can be used in your assignments.
The APA referencing style is an author-date citation style with two main features:
- In-text citations, where you refer to another author's work. You must cite your source by providing the last name(s) of the author(s) and the year of publication.
- The reference list which appears at the end of your assignment. This list includes full details of each source you have cited in-text, listing them in alphabetical order by the first author's last name.
