Referencing and attributions

If you use the ideas or works of others in your submission you must reference them. This is an academic requirement – you may be liable for plagiarism if you do not acknowledge the resources you have used. See UQ’s Guide on plagiarism.

Since you are submitting a video, you will not have in-text references. However, you should put your reference list in the Reference section of the References, Attributions, Consent, or Topic change Form (available on Blackboard) and submit it along with your video. Please use APA 7th referencing style. – see UQ Library’s guide on APA 7th.

There is no need to reference lecture slides from this course, nor do you need to reference the quote you are critiquing – because its bibliographical information would have been included in your issue identification submission already.

Likewise, if you have used creative artworks that are not created by you, you should fill out the Attributions section of the References, Attributions, Consent, or Topic change Form.

Tips

· Be precise! Pick one claim in your quote and focus on that one claim. Don’t be overly ambitious.

· Don’t spend time repeating the whole quote unless it helps. You can display it on screen to save time.

· Do NOT try to shorten your video by playing it at a higher speed. Past markers of similar assessment items told us that those videos are inaudible.

· We understand that people have accents. It should be emphasised that accent is NOT a marking criterion (beyond basic understandability). However, if you are worried, consider captioning your video.

· Likewise, we understand that you are students. As such, the technical quality of your aids, beyond being clear and effective, is not a marking criterion. For instance, hand-drawn graphs are considered just as good as computer generated graphics.

· If you want to use creative works (e.g., images) in your video, try searching Creative Commons. See UQ Library’s guide on finding and using media.
