Hey guys!
I have noticed after today´s class and the Town
Hall that some of you have many doubts about citation. I have used a free software called Mendeley to insert references in my articles. This program
automatically generates the references in a Microsoft Word document and the
best of all: in the format that you would need! (APA, APSA, ASA, Harvard
Reference Format, etc!). It is also very useful to organize your own database.
There are other programs that serve for the same purpose as Reference Manager,
EndNote, ProCite; however, you should pay in order to use them. Many universities have them,
so you should inquire at your respective university to which programs you have
access.
I know how to use Mendeley (I should clarify
that I am not an expert, I just know basic things), it has made my life easier in college. If you want,
I can teach you how to use it. Just let me know if you are interested J
Below is the link where you can read more about
it!
