Plagiarism Statement
Plagiarism Statement
(GFCLearnFree, 2018)
From the Bedford City Schools’ Parent/Student Handbook:
“The copying of a document word for word without quoting and documenting the source; writing a paraphrase of another’s idea without giving credit to that person; using another student’s work (in part or in whole) and claiming it is yours; incorporating specific information or key terms from a source without citing that source; presenting any information that is not common knowledge without documentation of the source from which it was borrowed; and enabling another student to commit any of the listed acts are all forms of plagiarism and will not be accepted. Plagiarism is a form of falsification and will subject the student to academic penalties and/or disciplinary action" ("Final BCSD Secondary", 2021).

According to Ribble et al.(2014), "Digital citizenship has become a priority for schools that see technology integration as a major teaching and learning strategy for preparing students to live and work in the 21st century. Using the NETS to help understand how technology should be used in the curriculum and applying digital citizenship to help define students’ behavior will facilitate the development of well-rounded, technology-savvy students"(p. 11).
