Referencing and Proofreading: The Assignment Journey Part 6

University of Derby Skills Podcast

In this episode Alex is joined by Naomi Bowers-Joseph to discuss Referencing and Proofreading. Naomi does workshops on referencing and wrote the workshop that Alex regularly uses in online sessions.

Alex and Naomi discuss how proofreading is much more than checking spelling punctuation and grammar, and talk about using Cite Them Right.

Their advice is supported with the voices of students.

The audio quality in this podcast is slightly reduced due to a change in recording format due to the current situation.

The Assignment Journey is a series of podcasts outlining the journey of an assignment, from when you first receive it, to when it is submitted.

In each episode Alex from the University of Derby Skills Team, is joined by special guests from the University who share their specialist advice on each area.
