Learning Support

 

Library Essentials gives you key information about using the Library in bite sized chunks, with simple texts and videos. Choose the SSF option to go through to the Essentials site, which is within Blackboard.

Our First Assignment resource has been put together by the Library and Learning Enhancement Team to support you when you are starting your first project, essay or report! The 'Finding and using Information' section of your first assignment toolkit will also give you some top tips on how to get started with searching.

Linked in Learning houses a catalogue of online courses, video tutorials and learning paths to help you learn new skills. These online courses are available to access anytime and you can learn at your own pace, on many different topics. And the biggest benefit of all… all UEA students (and recent graduates) can access LinkedIn Learning for FREE through the University.

Referencing Support

Heading and link: Cite Them Right

UEA subscribes to cite them right, which provides help and tutorials on many of the main referencing styles used at UEA. Use this to learn how best to reference books, articles (along with more tricky formats) and to double-check references you download from Library Search or Google Scholar are correct.
