Harvard Referencing
This is absolutely vital. You must apply this system of referencing to how you reference in the text and how you present your references in the reference section.
You will also be provided with a set of power-point slides with citation and referencing information which will help.  If your work is not properly referenced you are likely to see an impact on your assessment grade.  You also need to make sure that you do not plagiarise as this will result in a fail or worse an inability to pass this year.  If you are unsure what constitutes plagiarism please check your induction material or visit the on-line Library resources. 

HINT:  Have a look at top quality journal articles!

Also:  Refer to the following book which may help your approach and understanding of Harvard referencing:
