In your ppt presentation, you must reference any information, graphs, pictures, etc. that you get from other sources.

In your ppt presentation, you must reference any
information, graphs, pictures, etc. that you get
from other sources.
2
That means that you have to tell me where you get
information from
3
This does NOT mean that you can copy and paste
whole pages of information and try to tell me
that you did research.
4
It DOES mean that you can use your own words and
sometimes reference facts and figures from other
sources to justify what you say.
5
In your ppt, if you use a picture, you will name
is picture 1 or picture 2 etc.

• (If your pic is only for
• decoration, you do not have to reference it)

6
Example

• In Ottawa, many people like to ice skate.

Picture 1
7
If you use a graph, you can call it graph 1
8
Example

• According to graph 1, the stock market has
  experienced a huge decline.

Graph 1
9
If you use more than 1 graph or picture, then
after you use 1 graph, your next graph will be
called

• Graph 2

10
At the end of your ppt, you will have a reference
page where you will write all the information
about the book or web page where you found it
your pictures and graphs
11
You have to follow a format. It is this

• Picture 1 Author. Date (date published). Title
  of web page. Retrieved (Date), from (Title of Web
  Site) URL.

12
It may look like this
Picture 1 Meyers, A. S. 1990. Memories of a time
gone by. Retrieved February 6, 1996, from old
times http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memories.ht
ml
Please look at where the periods and spaces are.
Yours should be the same.
13
If there is no author mentioned, you can write
n.a.

• Example
• Picture 1 (n.a.) 1990. Memories of a time gone
  by. Retrieved February 6, 1996, from old times
  http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memories.html

14
If there is no date mentioned, you can write
(n.d.)

• Example
• Picture 4 Meyers, A. S. (n.d.). Memories of a
  time gone by. Retrieved February 6, 1996, from
  old times http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memorie
  s.html

15
You also have to show me where you get your
information from.

• That means that when you use facts or ideas
  inside your ppt that you got from another source,
  you have to put it in your reference page.

16
To do this, you also use the number system 1, 2,
3, 4

• But this time, you put the number beside the
  information or ideas that you use in your
  writing.

17
Example

• In 1700, a huge earthquake struck the coast of
  California.1
• In India, people could feel the effects of the
  2004 quake for miles around.2

18
That little number is called a superscript.To
get it, you can highlight your text. Then
right click your mouse. Then choose font.Then
choose superscript
19
Then in your reference page, you will give the
details of the actual web page that you found the
information from

• Example
• 1Tyrrell, C. J. 2007. Why Earthquakes are cool.
  Retrieved October 21, 2008, from mrtyrrell
  http//mrtyrrell.com/earthquakesarecool.html

20
When you make your reference page, all of your
sources should be listed in the same order as
they appear in your ppt. As well as by the
type.
That means that you will first list all your
sources of ideas and words
21

• 1 Jones, C. J. 2007. Why I am nice. Retrieved
  October 21, 2008, from nicepeople
  http//nicepeople.com/earthquakesarecool.html
• 2 Tyrrell, C. J. 2007. Why Earthquakes are cool.
  Retrieved October 21, 2008, from mrtyrrell
  http//mrtyrrell.com/earthquakesarecool.html

22
Then you will have your list of graphs

• graph 1 (n.a.) 1990. Memories of a time gone by.
  Retrieved February 6, 1996, from old times
  http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memories.html
• graph 2 Briggs, Sally 1995. Times are Good.
  Retrieved February 7, 1999, from old times
  http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memories.html

23
Lastly, you will have your list of pictures

• Picture 1 Briggs, Sally 1995. Times are Good.
  Retrieved February 7, 1999, from old times
  http//www.oldtimes.com/meyers/memories.html
