The laboratory aims to teach the tools useful for carrying out a bibliographic search through the use of search engines and bibliographic databases. The laboratory also intends to explain the structure of a scientific article, the method of citing a reference within a text and at the end of a text, and teaches the use of bibliographic management software such as Endnote or Mendelay.

The Program is divided into 5 parts:
- Structure of a scientific article
- Bibliographic research
- Bibliographic databases
- Structure and style of a quote within the text and at the end of the text
- Use of bibliographic management software

Disabilità e DSA

Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno registrato la certificazione di disabilità o la certificazione di DSA presso l'Ufficio Inclusione e diritto allo studio, possono chiedere di utilizzare le mappe concettuali (per parole chiave) durante la prova di esame.

A tal fine, è necessario inviare le mappe, due settimane prima dell’appello di esame, alla o al docente del corso, che ne verificherà la coerenza con le indicazioni delle linee guida di ateneo e potrà chiederne la modifica.
