Using business dictionaries
If you come across key terms or phrases you are unfamiliar with, look them up in a business dictionary. Business dictionaries contain authoritative and concise explanations of key business terms. Definitions are designed to be quick and easy to understand. Some good business dictionaries you can refer to are:
- The AMA Dictionary of Business and Management
- Business Balls Glossary and Terminology
- A Dictionary of Business and Management
Referencing
It is important that you acknowledge all the sources you use in your writing so that you:
- show your assessor how widely you have read
- provide evidence to support and strengthen your arguments and statements
- demonstrate academic integrity
- enable the reader to locate the sources referred to
- credit the original author(s) for their work.
Refer to the Deakin Guide to Referencing and select the correct style for your unit. If you are unsure, check with your unit chair.
