REFERENCING

CHAPTER 10
LISTING REFERENCES
After you had finished all the data and informations needed in your paper, it is the
time to list your references properly.
According to Library Guides (2019), a reference list lists only the sources you refer to
in your writing.
The purpose of the reference list is to allow your sources to be found by your reader.
It also gives credit to authors you have consulted for their ideas.
All references cited in the text must appear in the reference list, except for personal
communications (such as conversations or emails) which cannot be retrieved.
Nowadays, people can now use an application which can generate automatic
referencing. through Microsoft Word.
 STEPS IN REFERENCING
USING MS WORD
A. Put your cursor at the end of the text you want to cite.
B. Go to References > Style, and choose a citation style.
C. Select Insert Citation.
D. Choose Add New Source and fill out the information about your
source.
E. Once all sources were being encoded, select Bibliography.
F. Choose References and it will automatically appear on the page.
PRE-ORAL DEFENSE
According to Basilan (2017), below are the templates of formats in making a
powerpoint presentation in Pre-oral Defense.
Title Slide
Title of the manuscript – be specific and positive
Authors of the manuscript – order of the authors is important
The first author is considered the one who did most of the work and writing.

Why did you do the study?
Why is this study the best idea ever?

5-7 slides
Review of Related Literature
• Include only outstanding literature or studies from your paper.
• Titles and/or authors must be well acknowledge.
• It should be topical.
5-7 slides
Research Methodology
• One slide contains research design
• One slide contains participants of the study
• One slide contains data collection
1-3 slides
References
At least project them all on the screen
General Tips
• Practice, practice, practice
• Speak clearly and not too fast(give the audience time to understand
what you are saying). A presentation that is too difficult to
understand or follow is not a sign of impressive research.
• Avoid saying “um” – pauses are perfectly acceptable
• Look at the audience and not your slides
• Hold the pointer firmly and use judiciously
 AVOID STRESS BY
PLANNING AHEAD
1. What are the time requirements? Speaking (range 6-20 min)-vs- questions
(2-10-min)? Will there be a timer and what will be its settings?
2. Where do you need to be and on what day and time?
3. What should be the format/version of your presentation (slides, ppt, video
etc)? Does the presentation need to be uploaded in advance of the session?
Always bring a back-up copy of your presentation to the meeting (hard drive,
thumb drive, CD).
4. Familiarize yourself with the room; podium, microphone (stationary or
lavaliere), computer, slide advancement controls, pointer system (do you need
to bring your own?).
AVOID STRESS BY
PLANNING AHEAD
5. Practice the abstract in the same room if
possible.
6. Dress like a professional
7. Remember you are proud of your work, open
to suggestions to improve your work and are
honored to have been invited to present your
work – congratulations!

RESEARCH
PRESENTATION
MODES OF RESEARCH PRESENTATION
1. ROUNDTABLE PRESENTATION
In less formal roundtable presentations of your work, the
aim is usually to help stimulate a conversation about a topic.
The time you are given to present may be slightly shorter
than in a formal presentation, and you’ll also be expected o
participate in the conversation that follows all presenters’
talks.
ROUNDTABLE
PRESENTATION
Roundtables can be especially useful when your research is in
the earlier stages of development. Perhaps you’ve conducted a
pilot study and you’d like to talk through some of your findings
and get some ideas about where to take the study next.
A roundtable is an excellent place to get some and also get a
preview of the objections reviewers may raise with respect to
your conclusions or your approach to the work. Roundtables are
also great places to network and meet other scholars who share
a common interest with you.
2.ORAL PRESENTATION
Oral research presentations include lectures, conference
presentations, job talks, etc. Often, oral and written methods of
presentation are combined to effectively convey information about
research.
For example, posters or PowerPoint slides may be used to support
oral presentations of research, or information on posters may be
supplemented with oral explanations. Whichever type of research
presentation you choose for your research, you should remember the
following about the similarities and differences between oral and
written presentations.
3. VIDEO PRESENTATION
Another mode of research presentation
which lets the presenter feel more relax. All
the findings of the study will be presented
through audio visual presentation.
4. POSTER
PRESENTATION
In a poster presentation you visually represent your work. Just as you wouldn’t
read a paper verbatim in a formal presentation, avoid at all costs printing and
pasting your paper onto a poster board. Instead, think about how to tell the
“story” of your work in graphs, charts, tables, and other images.
Bulleted points are also isn’t so wordy that it would be difficult for someone
walking by very slowly to grasp your major argument and findings. Posters, like
roundtables, can be quite helpful at the early stages of a research project
because they are designed to encourage the audience to engage you in
conversation about your research major argument and findings. Posters, like
roundtables, can be quite helpful at the early stages of a research project
because they are designed to encourage the audience to engage you in
conversation about your research.
4. POSTER
PRESENTATION
Don’t feel that you must share every detail of
your work in a poster; the point is to share
highlights and then converse with your
audience to get their feedback, hear their
questions, and provide additional details about
your research.
