EDU72100 REFERENCING EXERCISE – TASK 2
DUE: WEEK 5: SUNDAY 7TH APRIL 2019
The following paragraph needs in-text references to make it academic and credible. To
demonstrate your research and referencing skills, you must research and include
information relevant to the paragraph below. This should include three articles from the
SCU library database (e.g. ProQuest) or from a credible website (e.g. a Government website,
ABS) or newspaper.
TASK PARAGRAPH – Copy this paragraph and also include two in-text references in
appropriate places to add support to the information.
Summer temperatures in Australia can vary between 15 degrees Celsius to over 40 degrees
Celsius. In most places, however, summer temperatures reach above 30 degrees Celsius,
and in areas with high humidity, conditions are even warmer. While many people enjoy the
warm climate, very high temperatures can lead to a range of health problems, especially
among certain groups such as young children, the elderly, and people working outdoors.
The hours between 10am and 3pm are the most risky for sun exposure. It is important to
take precautions in very hot weather, such as sunscreen, appropriate clothing, and hats.
This can also help prevent problems such as skin cancer in later years.
Copy the paragraph and include in-text references where you feel they are required to
make the paragraph more academic in style. Include at least one synthesised reference
(two or more references used together to support the same point).
Make sure to provide a references list in correct Harvard style, on the final page.
