Academic Integrity
Citation of resources and reference is critical
Give authors the credit they deserve for their work
Plagiarism is stealing words
Paraphrasing other’s work is acceptable as long as you give the author credit for the idea by citing the work.
Read and use your own words when writing about a topic.
Remember, that all quotations must have a citation and a page of paragraph number
Academic Integrity
Copying and pasting information or using the exact words of a source even if this is cited (unless quotation marks are used). Excessive copying even if contained within quotation marks is also unacceptable.
Submitting another person’s work as your own.
Sharing your work with others in any manner (i.e., sharing with a friend or uploading a paper to a public website).
Do not get Intimidated
Do not get intimidated.
This program is build in a friendly user way that is very considerate to the needs of students with English as second language.
Please take advantage of the weekly calls from your mentor to clarify any questions you may have.
