On 1st August 2021, PGSS SKM-SKBSK in collaboration with SPS UTM were pleased to conduct a structured course for session 2020/2021 that is “Cite It Right With Endnote” via an online platform. This course aimed to demonstrate tools and functions available in Endnote in order to prepare more sophisticated documents. It was an honor to have Puan Haliza binti Zainal who is a librarian who is an expert in research management software and applications including the referencing tools such as endnote.
In further details, this course was published online a week before the event and managed to secure 72 UTM students and 11 non-UTM students making a total of 83 participants to join through online Cisco Webex. Based on the participants feedback, overall 99% of the participants are satisfied with the course. The participants agreed that this course has enhanced their knowledge on referencing tools and deserve the unreserved recommendation. Most of them were also satisfied with the speaker’s presentation and explanations throughout the program. In addition, the session was not only based on slides, but it involved two ways of communication and learning. The interaction between the speaker and participants were lively. With the help of the moderator, all participants got the chance to participate in the Q&A session throughout the program.
Overall, “Cite It Right With Endnote” course received excellent ratings from the participants with many positive comments. Nevertheless, some of them suggested other referencing tools such as Mendeley for future courses. Therefore, the organizer has taken note of this comment and hopes for improvement in the next courses.
