Hi Cathy,

Here at Newman University in Birmingham we also use the SMART Notebook software for our interactive referencing activities. We also design a number of PowerPoint presentations as well where we ask the students to spot the errors from example references. I have attached one of my presentations that I use in my academic referencing sessions for Level 4 students so that you can see how it works. It is a basic one but works well for us. Something similar could be designed by using Notebook software as well.

Best wishes,

Deniz

 

 

 

Hi there,

Up until now we have used SMARTNotebook software to set up interactive referencing activities – students can move the different elements of the reference around and put it into the correct order on the board.

 

However, for various reasons, we are looking into alternatives and wonder what other libraries are doing? 

 

We do have sets of laminated cards which can be used too, but they can be a headache to collect up and resort into sets especially at busy times of year.  An activity that could be done on a SMARTboard is preferable.

 

Many thanks
