Plagiarism
It is important to learn from the work of
others and you are encouraged to explore the library, World Wide Web resources
and have discussions with other students. However, work for assessment must be
entirely the student’s own work.
Plagiarism is the presentation of the
expressed thought or work of another person as though it is one’s own without
properly acknowledging that person.
You must not allow other students to copy
your work and must take care to safeguard against this happening. In cases of
copying, normally all students involved will be penalised equally; an exception
will be if you can demonstrate the work is your own and you took reasonable
care to safeguard against copying.
Plagiarism is a serious offence. As set out
in the University Regulation 6.1.1. Students who are caught plagiarising will,
for a first offence, be given a zero mark for that task. A second offence will
result in a failing grade for the Unit(s) involved and any subsequent offence
will be referred to the Student Discipline Committee.
University Referencing/Citation Style Guide:
The
University has published a style guide to help students correctly reference and
cite information they use in assignments (American
Psychological Association (APA) citation style,(http://federation.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0015/164121/FedUni-General-Guide-to-Referencing-2014.pdf?sq_content_src=%2BdXJsPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZqZWQuY2VjYy5jb20uYXUlMkZjbGll

students correctly cite all sources of information.
