A CaRS session for undergraduates.

Making sure you reference the works of others in your academic writing is an important skill to master early, as it becomes second nature it allows you to focus on your reading and writing. This session will focus on:

• What plagiarism is
• What referencing is
• What information is needed for citations and bibliographies
• How to reference in APA, Harvard and IEEE
• And where to go for help

You do not need to bring anything with you to the class as everything will be supplied.

A CaRS session for undergraduates.

Designing and delivering a presentation or poster is not always something that people are comfortable with. This class will take you through the process from beginning to end and look at:

• Deciding on content and structure
• Slide design
• Remembering what to say
• Dealing with nerves
• Presenting a good image of yourself
• Dealing with disaster and questions

There is also the option to arrange a session practice your presentation in the future. You do not have to prepare for this session, but we will be tailoring it to the needs of the class, so you will be asked about your experiences and upcoming presenting engagements.
