Question 1
1. From your reading of the passage, mention two reasons why
students struggle to reference?
According to the author on page 28, Referencing is often a surprisingly new
concept to students, as schools do not uniformly insist on the practice.
The skills themselves are usually not covered in formal subjects, and
lecturers simply expect students to know how to reference, leaving them to
figure it out on their own.
