AN INTROCUTION TO REFERENCING AND APA LECTURE

AN INTROCUTION TO REFERENCING AND APA

Referencing – why?
·      Distinguish your ideas from someone else’s
·      Validate your own argument and add credibility 
·      Illustrate the scope of your reading
·      So readers can trace your sources
·      Avoid plagiarism

Referencing – when?
·      You need to quote, paraphrase or summarise the work of others
·      Cite and reference all your sources
·      This applies to all formats of information – books, journals, websites and includes data, diagrams and images etc.

Two parts referencing:

1.     Cite 
2.    Reference List
Highlighting in your work that the ideas and information came from someone else 
Listing the materials (books, journals, websites etc.) you use, in a clear consistent way, so that others can find them

Skeleton of a reference:
·      Who: author/editor/creator etc.
·      When:date published, released etc.
·      What:what you call it – the title!
·      Where:the origin – URL, publisher etc.

Book:
·      Easey, M. (2009). Fashion marketing (3rded). Chichester: Wiley-Blackwell.

Journal article:
·      Moine, R. (2017)). Saint Laurent on Screen: Fashion Icon, Doomed Artist, or Celebrity? Fashion Theory, 21(6), 733-748.
·      Rettrieved from: https://doi.org/10.1080/1362704X.2017.1357369

Website: 
·      Branningan, M. (2018, November 8). The suddenly surging business of recycled plastic puffer jackets. 
·      Retrieved from: https://fashionista.com/2018/11/recycled-plastic-puffer-jackets-trend-2018

Paraphrasing:
·      As Hawley (2006) has summarized, pre-consumer textile waste consists of excess fiber, yarn, fabric, and garments during manufacturing while post-consumer textile waste is created by consumers, which may consist of any type of garment or household item that has become unnecessary

how do you know?
·      This growing demand for retailers to be more transparent is part of a shift in attitudes among young Millennials towards interest in more sustainable fashion, with 44% of this generation wanting to see more eco-friendly fabrics used in clothes (Mintel Academic, 2017)

I need to reference something in APA:

·      Referencing and acknowledgement are often used interchangeably and this can cause confusion when using images in your creative work.

FINAL BRAND POSITIONING MAP

Victoria’s Secret’s top competitors as of January 2019 are Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan New York, and all three just like Victoria’s Secret, work in the Systems Software Industry, which is a type of computer programmer that is used to run a computer’s applications. In addition, as found in some primary research that has been conducted of an Instagram Poll. There are also many other brands that are competitors of Victoria’s Secret. For example, Ann Summers, Boux Avenue, Primark and H&M. There are a large amount of competitors that consumers would lean towards rather than Victoria’s Secret because they are cheaper, better quality and have better ethics/morals and therefore customers have more respect for those brands. Even though Victoria’s Secret is a successful business, alternative brands have many features buyers worship that Victoria’s Secret do not have, resulting in a loss of sales for the company.

BRAND POSITIONING MAP

This is my brand positioning map/first attempt of the one I will be submitting; I may add/change some of the brand around once even more research has been conducted. The points I decided to go for in this brand positioning map is 'HIGH PRICE', 'LOW PRICE', 'HIGH QUALITY' AND 'LOW QUALITY'. I believe these are good points as it shows if the price of the products matches up to the quality and portrays whether you actually get for what you pay for. These brands on the map are all of different levels of quality and price and I have placed them according to where I believe they should go.
