	Glossary

For some assignments you may need information from scholarly journals...
...while others might require you to watch a motion picture on DVD.

The types of publications you need will depend on the assignment topic and the marking and assessment criteria set by your lecturer.

When deciding what types of publications you need, think about how the information evolves from an event or idea to published information.
