TurnItIn
You should always give credit to the author of any resource that you have taken information or quotations from by adding references into your work alongside the original authors work.
This should also be accompanied with a BIBLIOGRAPHY, or Reference List at the back of your work.
You can check to see if you have referenced correctly on TurnItIn. You may already be using this in your course, with your tutor, but if not you can access the generic student one on Blackboard.
Simply go to the Student Services course on Blackboard, find the Check Your Work area and you can upload your work to see if you have referenced everything that you have taken from another source.
