Week 7 - End Note

Lecture Summary


Today we discussed the group assignment at the start of the lecture and then we moved onto the basic tutorial on end note. During the tutorial we answered 3 basic questions.
1. What is end note?
2. How does end note work?
3. Why use end note?

What is end note
End note is an online archive of references that can be accessed at any time. It is searchable through author name, abstracts of text, year of publish and much more.

How does end note work?
End note works as both a stand alone program and an integrarated program through microsoft word on both vista and xp. End note is able to create the perfect refrence and changes for diffrent styles.

Why use end note?
You should use end note to keep all your references orgainsed. It is much easier to find the reference to go with that quote stuck in your head through end note than it is to look through pages and pages of references. It is also useful to change styles of referencing quickly and aquratly.

Tutorial Summary
Today in the tutorial we discussed further the program called end note. We were given references to put into end note and then we had to use those references to create the cite while you write document. By using end note it made the cite while you write document alot easier to edit because with just a click of a button you could insert the correct citation and an automatic end text references would be put at the bottom of the page to go with the in text reference.
