Grade 12 history assessment Bibliography

A bibliography is an alphabetical list of all the sources (books, articles, websites, etc.) that were consulted and used in the creation of a research paper, essay, or project. It serves several key purposes:

1. Acknowledgement: It gives credit to the original authors and creators of the information and ideas you have used, avoiding plagiarism.
2. Verification: It allows readers to locate the sources you consulted to verify your information or to explore the topic further.
3. Scope: It indicates the breadth and depth of your research, showing the range of materials you engaged with.

For a Grade 12 history assessment, a bibliography typically includes the author's last name and first initial, the title of the work (italicized or underlined), the place of publication, the publisher, and the year of publication for books. For articles or websites, it would include the article title, the journal/website name, volume/issue numbers, dates, and page numbers or URLs.
