4.Validating and Supporting Arguments If a proposition or idea is not supported with evidence, then it is not substantiated. In academic writing, referencing provides necessary evidence to validate, support and substantiate claims. Evidence needs to be accessible so that it can be checked to withstand the critical scrutiny of others. All referencing is designed to provide a standardised framework for this checking and validation to happen. Remember: If you make a claim, assertion or argument, you need to substantiate it with a valid reference.

3. Connecting Your Work to Others Knowledge is rarely isolated to one single idea, but rather is a construction of numerous related concepts that connect and spread: the past connects with the present and has an impact on the future. Arguments are developed in academic writing in a similar way to how a spider builds its web - with carefully engineered connections that join idea to idea. An argument is advanced in one section, but then countered or interconnected to others, and how this is shown is by the support of referencing. Referencing enables you to show that you are part of a much larger research world - a field of study or a discipline.

What is EFTSL? Updated 06/03/2019 01.21 PM Equivalent full-time student load (EFTSL) is one of the components used to calculate your student contribution. One EFTSL is equivalent to a full-time study load for one year. For standard undergraduate degrees, an annual total of 80 credit points is equivalent to a standard year of full-time study (one EFTSL). A standard course of 10 credit points will be 0.125 EFTSL (10/80), so eight courses is a standard full-time year load (8 x 0.125 = 1 EFTSL). The EFTSL of each course is displayed on your Commonwealth Assistance Notice (CAN). Some degrees will have different standard annual credit points and therefore the courses will have different EFTSL.

How do I cite the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights in APA style? Updated 31/03/2022 11.03 AM According to the Australian Human Rights Commission , the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, by itself, is not a treaty or a legally binding document but it has influenced the creation of legally binding treaties internationally. You can cite the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a document found on the web for purposes of assignments: Author: United Nations Original publication date: 1948 Title: Universal declaration of human rights URL. Check with your lecturer to ensure you are referencing as required for the particular assignment. For more information and in-text and reference list examples, see our Referencing guides.

SAMA VILLAGE - Sāmagāma Sutta. Like this I hear. At one time the Blessed One was staying among the Sakkas, in Samagama (Sādi village). At that time, Nigaṇṭha Nātaputta had just passed away in Pāvā. After the death of this person, the Nigaṇṭha divided into two factions, divided among themselves, quarreled with each other, argued with each other, and lived torturing each other with weapons of the tongue. "You don't know this Dharma and this Law, I know this Dharma and this Law. How can you know this Dharma and this Law? You follow the wrong conduct, I follow the right conduct. My words are compatible, His words are not compatible. It is worth mentioning first, he said later; the latter, he said first. What he conceived and presented was reversed. His views have been challenged. He was defeated. Let's go to clear your point of view. Get yourself out of a deadlock if you can! "It seems that the disciples of NigaṇṭhaNātaputta wanted to destroy each other. The NigaṇṭhaNāta...

KINH TRUNG BỘ. KINH LÀNG SAMA – Sāmagāma Sutta. Như vầy tôi nghe. Một thời Thế Tôn trú ở giữa các vị Sakka (Thích Ca), tại Samagama (Xá-di thôn). Lúc bấy giờ, Nigaṇṭha Nātaputta vừa mới tạ thế ở Pāvā. Sau khi vị này tạ thế, các vị Nigaṇṭha chia ra làm hai phái, chia rẽ nhau, tranh chấp nhau, tranh luận nhau và sống tàn hại nhau với binh khí miệng lưỡi. “Ông không biết Pháp và Luật này, ta biết Pháp và Luật này. Sao Ông có thể biết Pháp và Luật này? Ông theo tà hạnh, ta theo chánh hạnh. Lời nói ta tương ưng, lời nói Ông không tương ưng. Ðiều đáng nói trước, Ông nói sau; điều đáng nói sau, Ông nói trước. Ðiều Ông quan niệm, trình bày đã bị đảo lộn. Quan điểm của Ông đã bị thách đố. Ông đã bị đánh bại. Hãy đi giải tỏa quan điểm của Ông. Hãy tự thoát khỏi bế tắc nếu Ông có thể làm được!” Hình như các đệ tử của NigaṇṭhaNātaputta muốn tàn hại lẫn nhau. Chính các đệ tử cư sĩ mặc đồ trắng của NigaṇṭhaNātaputta cũng chán ngấy, cơ hiềm, và phản đối các Nigaṇṭha, vì pháp luật của họ đã được ...

HOW TO THINK MEDICAL Sutta - Kinti Sutta Thus I heard. Once the Blessed One was staying at Kusinara, in the forest of Baliharaṇa. Here, the Blessed One called the bhikkhus: "Bhikkhus," —"Yes, venerable sir." Those bhikkhus obeyed the Blessed One. The Exalted One said thus - What do you think, bhikkhus? Is it because of the clothes, the recluse Gotama preaching the Dharma? Or is it because of alms food, the recluse Gotama preached the Dharma? Or is it because human beings are ready to sit, the recluse Gotama preaches the Dharma? Or is it because of success or failure, the recluse Gotama preached the Dharma? —It is not so, venerable sir! We do not think: "For the sake of robes, the recluse Gotama preaches the Dharma. Or for the sake of begging food, the recluse Gotama preached the Dharma. Or for the sake of sitting, the recluse Gotama preached the Dharma. Or for the sake of success or failure, the recluse Gotama preaches the Dharma." —And thus, bhikkhus, to ...
