Citation & Referencing using the (APA) Method Session 06
Session Objectives • Understand the need for citations and references • Practice writing citations and reference lists in line with the APA technique
Citation and Referencing What is Citation/Referencing? Citation and referencing are terms used to show readers of your work where your sources of information come from. Northumbria University adopts the American Psychological Association (APA) method of referencing – you must adopt this approach in all of your work. • To 'cite' is to quote a passage, a quote etc in the body of your text and gives the quotation authority. • To 'reference' is to give the reader of your work directions to the book, passage etc. where the information is held. • To cite and reference correctly you need to collect and assemble details of where your information came from and include this in your text.
Why? - to acknowledge the work of other writers- to demonstrate the body of knowledge on which you have based your work - to demonstrate your own knowledge of the field- to enable other researchers to trace your sources and lead them on to further information
Reference / Citation Main Body of Text Directive coaching involves the coach teaching, advising and feeding back information to the coachee (Fielden, 2005). Fielden notes that this form of coaching is disliked by many of the coaching purists, as they consider it authoritarian in nature, unsupportive in relation to the coachee taking responsibility for their learning and development and northing more than the provision of consulting advice. Atkinson (2004) in an article in Coaching Today, disagrees and contributes to the debate arguing that there is a role for the directive approach, suggesting that it should be employed when groups of staff need specific advice, often when an organisation is going through trauma or if the coachee is in the infancy of their learning journey.
Reference Citation – Main Body of Text According to Fielden (2005) coaching is centred on unlocking a person’s potential to maximise his or her own performance. A view supported by the CIPD (2009) who in their discussions highlight the links between coaching and improvement in performance, stating that ‘coaching can and does provide a platform for individuals to reach their performance aspirations’ (CIPD, 2009 p. 65). Generally speaking in order to achieve this unlocking of potential and maximisation of performance, one of two types of coaching are usually employer – directive or non-directive coaching (Downey, 2003).
