AVOIDING PLAGIARISM
AVOIDING PLAGIARISM
Writing an essay or presentation? How do I make sure to avoid plagerism?
WHAT IS PLAGERISM? This is any time that you use someone else's words, pictures, graphics, data and claim them as your own by either failing to quote or cite the information properly.
HERE is a LOOM video that I made to try and assist with this idea more clearly.
Here are some valuble ideas:
Is what you are writing entirely your own thoughts and words?
Could you write the paper/essay/presentation "with your eyes closed"?
Did you use or need to research other sources? REMEMBER this is a good skill to have and I highly encourage using your resources
Follow THIS really helpful flowchart guide from Purdue Owl Resources
When in doubt...CITE (at a minimum, you need to provide the website source, but MLA is great practice)
There are lots of great citation tools: Purdue OWL, EasyBib, CitationMachine

EOC Benchmark #1
EOC Benchmark #1
HERE is a document with lots of useful videos to review key concepts in preparation of the Biology EOC:
If you have not completed Reporting Category 4, you may want to consider completing it before attempting this benchmark (yes, I know it is out of order and will put in a "holding zero" but that will go away when you complete the benchmark.
If you have completed the benchmark, you may find it helpful to complete Reporting Category 4 to review some lessons before you attempt your 2nd or 3rd attempt.
EOC Benchmark #2
EOC Benchmark #2
While this playlist is for the North Carolina Bioloy Review - Ms. Lasseter created a great playlist of videos that review the topics essential for success on this benchmark as well as preparing for our EOC in May.
