How to… make a BIBLIOGRAPHY

This is a fantastic presentation made by a colleague, using Prezi. It is a very simple way to remember what to collect from your resources to compile a bibliography.

How to… use DELICIOUS

Delicious is a social bookmarking tool. That means that you can save your favourite websites from any computer into your Delicious account, organise them with tags and then share them with other people. You can also search and look at what other people are saving and so get the best links for your work or interests. Have a look at the short video below. Please ask Mrs Robinson if you would like more information as she is a very keen Delicious fan!

How to… use DIIGO

Diigo is another social bookmarking site that is similar to Delicious, although it does have some extra features.

How to… avoid PLAGIARISM

This presentation was made for Sixth Form students to help them to understand plagiarism and how to avoid it!

This is a presentation made for Year 10 Geographers – but it would be useful for other students too!
