【問題】在國外上大學3年,還是沒有完全學會如何做reference...

[mglt 10]

外國的論文在reference這方面要求真是嚴格...即使寫了不下10篇論文還是很多這樣的錯誤...大家是怎麼解決的,有中文的reference教學翻譯本嗎?看英文真的好累...

[MikiRei 10]

Errr...like

"Company A, in 1999, had their sales reduced down to 60% due to their lack of management" [1]. Blah blah blah etc.

"Some other sentence 2" [2]

"Something else 3" [3]

寫文章要引經據典 這叫做reference

要言之有物 大量的閱讀是不二法門

可是

我不太了解你的reference是什麼意思

我想

你應該是在問citation吧?!

[MikiRei 10]

你應該是在問citation吧?!

Same thing really.

去Wikipedia. Reference寫法跟她們的差不多

要嗎就問老師就行了

It also depends on what style of reference that certain publishers, conferences and journals require.

For example, the one my school requires us to use is UTS Harvard style.

But most of computer science conferences use numbering system reference style.

some materials for you:

In text referencing

I am doing Ph.D. in Computing Science, and school requires us to take one subject teaching thesis writing skills. That's how I get information from.

Also, there are software tools that you can use to help on referencing, e.g. EndNote and RefWork. But do not entirely rely on them. They are just programmed rules embeded without intelligence.

try to read several papers, their reference style are all very similar. Yet, depending on your field, you might need MLA or APA style.
