Primarily for students in the MSHE Sacramento program, tonight’s session will cover the basics quickly as needed:  exporting citations from popular education databases that do and don’t support RefWorks, creating bibliographies, etc. Then we’ll get into some finer points, such as publicly sharing bibliographies, linking attachments and using the Ref-Grab-It plugin to capture website details, and the Write-n-Cite plugin to generate in-text (parethetical) references.

Technical requirements:

The session requires a fast internet connection and an up-to-date browser. Wired connections are preferable over wireless, otherwise you may notice poor audio quality.  If you have a microphone you may participate in the conversation, but typing questions in the chat box will work too. If you plan to use the built-in mic on your laptop, then you’ll need to wear headphones so as to avoid creating feedback. Plan on joining the e-classroom 5-10 minute prior to the scheduled start time to test your connection. Those who plan to participate using their mic will need to install a tiny Acrobat plugin.

Please note that 7PM PST = 10PM EST
