[General] Do I need to reference myself?

[flobeth]

For my Biology coursework, I write up an investigation. I have made my own tables, graphs, diagrams (etc.) using normal drawing materials as well as computer programs (excel and Google SketchUp).

Do I need to reference myself, since I have created them solely for this report (the data and such in the graphs and tables are also all my own from my own practical work that I came up with):?:

Please help!

In general, one does not reference one's own work except for papers on the subject that were published previously.

If you have created these things for your coursework, you have nothing to reference.

I agree with the above. However, I don't think it can hurt to write a line somewhere saying, "All illustrations are original/mine" - possibly after the first reference to Figure 1.
I've noticed a few of my essays with "?ref" written on them when I give my opinion which I know is true from life experience.
But, no, you don't reference yourself in "References".
