What do you know about referencing?

This is a simple self-test to test basic knowledge of what a citation is and how it is structured. The idea is that students should learn by finding out the answers themselves, by looking up what they do not already know in resource pages such as Søk & Skriv.

The test is used in the e-course Digital source criticism (DIGI101) at UiB, where it accompanies a module on integrity in academic writing made up of short texts and videos on, among other things, referencing, as in this example borrowed from the resource page Søk & Skriv: Søk & Skriv. (2021). How to insert sources and avoid plagiarism. youtube.com

English version

This is a simple self-test designed to assess basic knowledge about what a source citation is and how it is structured. The idea is for students to learn independently by finding the answers themselves through resources like Søk & Skriv.

The test is used in the e-course Digital Source Evaluation (DIGI101) at UiB, where it accompanies a module on integrity in academic writing. The module is composed of short texts and videos on topics such as referencing, illustrated by this example borrowed from the resource Søk & Skriv: Søk & Skriv. (2021).
