Mendeley Learning Session

On week 9, we are having a Mendeley Learning Session class at PTAR, Puncak Alam. The class session was held at Computer laboratory inside the PTAR. It was very beneficial and fruitful session for all of us young researchers. We would like to say thanks so much to our Prof Aziah who was sponsored this learning session for the whole class.

from the session, the instructor is very mindful to teach us one by one. first of all, she helped us about how to find the articles on online databases. and then, we have to download it and create a folder for all the article downloaded into mendeley. so from there, we can see how a mendeley actually works. 

to be honest, I was indeed didn't know what is Mendeley all about before. from this session, omg I just realized how it is so handy to manage all our references, documents, journal and readings in just few clicks! basically Mendeley is a free reference manager and academic social network that can help you organize your research, collaborate with others online, and discover the latest research.s a

to all of you out there, please give it a try to use Mendeley!
Mendeley also applicable to use with mobile. 


so i already mention about an online database earlier, we are actually learn how to search and find the articles, journals and the previous thesis from different databases. this help us a lot in term of finding an accuracy articles according to our topic with the latest update article and also on various type of online databases. Usually, I always used a ProQuest Dissertation & Theses https://search-proquest-com.ezaccess.library.uitm.edu.my/pqdtglobal/index

so from now on, I have various souces for example thru science direct, emerald premium, ProQuest Education Collection and ERIC Plus and many more. this is such eye-opening for me!

APA format is important for our references format. the instructor also help us out how to cite the articles properly and paraphrase it to avoid a plagiarisme.  

oh yess, forgot to inform that I'm the winner of the quiz session on that day! yay๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜…here is my-oh-candid-picture hahaa...
