  1. REFERENCING

  2. PLAGIARISM To knowingly take or use another person’s invention, idea or writing and claim it, directly or indirectly, to be your own work.

  3. THERE ARE THREE MAIN FORMS OF PLAGIARISM: • Copying, summarising or paraphrasing words from a significant source straight into your assignment without acknowledging the source • Copying another student’s work and then claiming or pretending it to be your own. It is also plagiarism if you allow another student to copy your work. • Colluding with other students and submitting identical or near identical work

  4. HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM (1): By summarizing in your own words as best you can another person’s work, and by giving acknowledgement to that person in your assignment. This is done by citingyour sources (a partial reference) in the text of your assignments and listing all your sources in a referencessection at the end of the assignment.

  5. HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM (2) …or, by using quotation marks in your assignments to distinguish between your words and the other person’s words. Once again, you would acknowledge your sources in your references.

  6. WHY use references in assignments ? • To give the reader the source of statistics & other data • To add support to your own arguments or point of view • To refer the reader to the source of a quotation or definition • To acknowledge a specific writer who has influenced your own thinking, or whose ideas you have summarised or paraphrased • To give the reader the source of any significant information you have summarised or paraphrased and therefore avoid plagiarism.

  7. YOU DON’T NEED TO REFERENCE • Information drawn from a variety of sources to summarise what has happened over a period of time and when the summary is unlikely to be a cause of dispute or controversy • When pulling together a range of key ideas that you introduced and referenced earlier in the assignment • When stating or summarising generally undisputed facts circulating freely in the public domain and when there is unlikely to be any significant disagreement with your statements or summaries of these.
