Testing and reseach
On Friday the subject librarian Cathy Parker took our class to discuss
research, sources and plagiarism. I had also not written a summary of the
previous class on testing so I’ll summarise that here.
Finding sources for your work
You can see a recording of the session lead by Cathy Parker here.
Cathy covered the following topics:
- How the session is relevant to the coursework
- Using good quality information, journal articles, what journal articles are
- Where to find journal articles, mentioned LibrarySearch, Google Scholar and Elicit
- Gen AI tools, how to use with academic integrity, potential uses, examples of tools, limitations and concerns
- Examples of plagiarism
- Citing and referencing - generating BibTeX files, using these in LaTeX
- Signposting to support - tutorials on academic writing, group work, giving presentations. Also stressed to contact me if they have questions.
Testing

In that class we wrote test_tsp.py for the tsp library.
