2.Of course, you can’t just simply copy the information from a published source without appropriately paraphrasing and citing (i.e. referencing) the author(s) and related publication details. To do so would be ‘plagiarising’; something that the University takes very seriously.

A short video explaining what Plagiarism and Referencing is can be accessed from the Library homepage. Click on the ‘Study’ option, then ‘Get Help’. Look under the ‘Online Help Resources’ heading and click the ‘Plagiarism and Referencing – Harvard APA’ link.

From this video, what five reasons are given for referencing:

  1. _________________________
  2. _________________________
  3. _________________________
  4. _________________________
  5. _________________________

3.There are many different referencing types/styles and each School in the University has their own particular preference. To find out which reference type is used by a particular school, go to the Library homepage and select the ‘Study’ option. Then click on ‘Referencing Guides’ (under the ‘Get Help’ section).

The Referencing style used by the School of Business and Tourism is ___

4.When following the directions for completing task #3, you have the opportunity to access the School preferred Library Referencing Guide (i.e. Lib Guide). Click the link and save a copy of the PDF version (it will be handy when working on future assignments). The first page of this document identifies that there are two components to the particular Referencing style. These components are:
1.—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

2.—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

5.In addition to the Library, the University provides other resources to help students develop their academic skills. For example, the Student Learning Zone has a number of ‘Quick Guides’ that offer valuable information on starting and completing assignments.

When writing academic reports and other similar assignments, students are expected to paraphrase information that appears in various sources (such as a journal article).

Access the Student Learning Zone and look for the Quick Guide Pdf on ‘Summarising and Paraphrasing’. It’s in the ‘Study Skills’ Section.

The following passage appears in the document. Study the passage carefully and insert the missing information.

When you paraphrase something you express the same _ but in
different words. A paraphrase is usually, but not necessarily _
than
the original. In assignments paraphrasing is a good way to avoid _ too

much and show that you understand the original source. Don’t forget that even though you have changed the words, you still need to cite the _
source in your assignment.

6.Go to the Student Learning Zone again and look for the Quick Guide Pdf on ‘Working in groups and teams’. You should not have any trouble locating it. Once you do, refer to the ‘checklist’ that will help you determine how well a team is working together.

The last item on the checklist is ‘Cohesion’. Identify the two questions associated with this item.

1.————————————————————————————————————————

2.———————————————————————————————————————–

7.When collecting information for an assignment, students will likely use one of the Library’s electronic Databases. Each individual database provides access to thousands of articles published in a number of different sources (e.g. academic journals).

There are 24 databases that are particularly relevant to the School of Business and Tourism. One of them can be abbreviated ‘BSP’.

To identify the full name of this database, go to the Library Homepage and select‘Databases’. Then access the Business and Tourism link (it’s under the heading ‘Find databases relevant to your School’).

Title: Are the Management Functions ———————— in ——————–Managerial Work?

Publication: Academy of ————– Review
Year of Publication: ———————-

Vol. . Issue No. 1. Pages: 38- ——————–

9.When writing an academic paper and drawing on content from another publication, the Library’s ‘School preferred’ Referencing Guide, which you accessed to answer task 4, shows that there are two distinct ways (formats) to paraphrase and cite the information.

Below is a brief pass that comes from page 48 of the journal article identified in task 8. Using this passage, give an example of each citation method. Note: it is important that you include the page number in the reference details.

The classical functions still represent the most useful way of conceptualizing the manager’s job, especially for management education,
and perhaps this is why it is still the most favoured description of managerial work in current management textbooks. The classical functions
provide clear and discrete methods of classifying the thousands of different
activities that managers carry out and the techniques they use in terms of
the functions they perform for the achievement of organizational goals.
