This course covers three essential modules that build upon each other to give you complete command over academic referencing. You’ll start with the Foundations of Referencing, where you’ll understand citation principles, different referencing styles, and why proper attribution matters in academic work. Next, you’ll discover how Microsoft Word can serve as an easy and powerful referencing tool, learning to create automated in-text citations and reference lists with just a few clicks. Finally, you’ll master Mendeley, the professional reference management software used by researchers worldwide, including its basics and advanced workflow features for organizing sources, annotating PDFs, and seamlessly integrating references into your documents.
