Plagiarism

Plagiarism is the act of taking, using, and/or presenting the idea(s), work(s),

and/or writing(s) of another as one's own. Plagiarism includes, but is not limited to:

1. Submitting as one’s own - any theme, paper, report, computer program,

presentation, creative work, or scholarly work of any nature belonging to, or

written or created by another.

a) To avoid plagiarism, give written credit and acknowledgment to the source

of thoughts, ideas, and/or words, whether you have used direct quotation,

paraphrasing, or just a reference to a general idea.

b) If you directly quote works written by someone else, enclose the quotation

with quotation marks and provide an appropriate citation (e.g., footnote,

endnote, bibliographical reference).

c) Research for an assignment, as well as the complete written paper

assignment, must be the work of the person seeking academic credit for

the course.
