Citing Sources & Academic Integrity
Why cite sources? In addition to avoiding the consequences of plagiarism and increasing your credibility, you are participating an ongoing scholarly conversation. It is important for your readers to be able to find your sources, so they can enter into the dialogue as well.
Remember, if you find a design online that you use or modify, you MUST cite it as a source. This is not bad. This is GOOD. It's all part of the scientific process.
Your school subscription to NOODLETOOLS can help you format and track citations. You must use your school email to access your FREE account, either from www.NoodleTools.com or directly from Google Drive.
