Referencing

Academic referencing (using quotes from or referring to text books, websites or the TEFL Academy online course)
is a requirement for this qualification.

You must include at least two references for Assignment A. (Pictures and The TEFL Academy site are adequate)
All materials you use or refer to should be properly referenced in a bibliography.
The purpose of referencing is a) to avoid plagiarism
b) to give your reader enough information to easily find the original source if they want to.
In your work you should refer to the text in brackets in a way that allows the reader to easily find the full reference in
the bibliography. Eg. (Scrivener, 2014)
In your bibliography use the following formats:
Books: Author (date) title, city, publisher, page no
Example: Jim Scrivener (2014) Teaching English Grammar, Oxford, Macmillan Education, pp 67-8

Websites: Author/Organisation. Date/n.d. Title. Website name, Available at: website address [Accessed: (date you
looked at it)]

Example: Alex Case (March 2008) 15 fun games for the Present Continuous, TEFL.net, Available at:
https://www.tefl.net/elt/ideas/grammar/fun-games-for-present-continuous/ [Accessed 19/08/2018]

'n.d.' stands for 'no date,' use this if no date is given. If the name of the author is not given, just leave it out.

For pictures you need only provide only a description of the picture and a hyper-link to the image, or copy and
paste the URL

Your bibliography should look something like this:
