Bibliography
A list of all sources cited in coursework, formatted according to academic conventions. A bibliography demonstrates the breadth of research undertaken and allows readers to locate sources consulted.
Real World
A coursework bibliography listing only websites and one textbook signals shallow research, whereas one including Ian Kershaw's 'Hitler' biography, Journal of Contemporary History articles, and National Archives documents demonstrates serious scholarly engagement.
Exam Focus
Include a range of source types — academic monographs, journal articles, and primary sources — to demonstrate breadth of independent research.
