Winter classes are underway, and chances are you’re taking stock of the assignments and presentations that lay ahead of you this term.

As you map out your action plan, assemble your group members and prepare for success, don’t overlook a critical component: understanding how to properly cite your work. Your understanding of academic honesty, and your ability to document academic and business research sources will be key factors in how you fare this term – so it’s important that you get it right and learn how to cite now, before life gets even busier!

You may be familiar with basic citation – but sometimes things get tricky:

  • How do you properly credit videos, news stories or classroom materials?
  • What do you do when you see other students discussing a take-home exam on your Facebook news feed?
  • What exactly constitutes a breach of academic dishonesty, and what actions are taken as a result?

If you could benefit from a refresher, join us for a short, FREE workshop offered by Bronfman Business Librarian Stephanie Quail and SSIR’s Student Academic Services Coordinator, Julian Higuerey Nunez. The workshop will also help you access useful tools and resources to simplify APA citation.
