Citations for PPT PresentationsA few best practices

Why is it Important It is always important to cite your

sources! Otherwise it is considered Plagiarism!

Options: If you only have one or two sources, place

your citation in smaller font at the bottom of the slide, (author and date).

For multiple sources on many different slides, you can refer to superscript numbers for each reference. Then place full citations on a reference slide at the bottom of your presentation.

It is preferred that you do NOT include the source within the text of the slide (example below). It distracts and takes up real estate.
