Tips for writing your final exam paper: How to indicate your references
- You can use the existing book chapters here as an example.
- Please write the text and indicate ALL SOURCES with bibliographical references. That means: At least for every paragraph, sometimes for single sentences, you have to indicate at the end, where you have found this information. E.g. (Liu Miqing 2010, 17). This means you have found it in the book or paper written by Ms Liu on page 17. And then, you need to add a section at the end called "References". There you write the full version of the reference: Liu Miqing 刘宓庆. (2010). 翻译基础 [Translation Basis]. Shanghai: East China Normal University 华东师范大学. Similarly, you do it for papers: Jin Wenlu 靳文璐. (2019). 机器翻译可以取代人工翻译吗? [Can machine translation replace human translation?]. 智库时代 Think Tank Times (40) 282-284.
- Do not write any references like in one of the sample chapters:
[1] dsalkfkdsa
[2] adsfadsfag
But only the following way:
(Liu Miqing 2010, 17) in the text
and then
References

- Liu Miqing 刘宓庆. (2010). 翻译基础 [Translation Basis]. Shanghai: East China Normal University 华东师范大学.
Also, please avoid using the three apostrophes like ' ' ' (without spaces). Use the equal signs to mark headers and subheaders instead. If your paper topic has two equal signs at the beginning and end of your topic, then use three equal signs for your sub headers. Example (without spaces):
= = Topic = = < c e n t e r > Student Name, Student no. < / c e n t e r > = = = Abstract = = = This chapter is on .... = = = Key Words = = = Egg, Hen = = = 题目 = = = = = = 摘要 = = = = = = 关键词 = = = = = = Introduction = = = Here starts the normal text of the chapter. Please remember to indicate the source of EACH PARAGRAPH, sometimes even of single sentences. You can indicate it like this. (Woesler 2020, 345) And don't forget to mention the full bibliographical entry beneath under References. = = = The Egg = = = Bla, bla, bla = = = The Hen = = = Bla, bla, bla = = = Conclusion = = = Bla, bla, bla = = = References = = = Woesler, Martin. (2020). Responsibility and Ethics in Times of Corona. Woesler, Martin and Hans-Martin Sass eds. Medicine and Ethics in Times of Corona Muenster: LIT

Sub-Websites to write your final exam paper on
As a reference, here is the information about last year's final exam papers:
The website where everybody wrote their final exam paper on became too big and produced a database error. Therefore we split the website into 10 small websites. They are sorted like the chapters in the book. Please look for your name and find the right of the 10 small websites to edit your book chapter. Everybody also needs to help to improve other book chapters (copy a paragraph, paste it beneath, make your corrections in the paragraph and sign it).
