Plagiarism Writing
Summary
- Plagiarism occurs if you use somebody else’s work in an assignment or exam answer but fail to state where you got the material. You need to be also very careful about the amount of words you are using from somebody else’s work.
- It can happen in any type of assessment where you are given the questions or tasks in advance.
- If another student uses your work in his/her answer(s), both you and he/she will be punished when caught.
- Punishments for committing plagiarism can be very severe.
Details
Plagiarism is a form of cheating in which students use the work of others and present it as their own. It may include all or any one of the following
- Copying extensively from the work of others (from sources such as books, magazines, journal, websites etc.) and submit the work as your own.
- Copying another students’ work and submit it for assessment under your own name.
- Allowing students to copy your work and then submit it for assessment under their own name.
What happens if you are caught?
The examining body of CBFS may punish offending students in any manner that they deem fit. Typical punishments may range from reduction in grades, making students re-sit modules and even failing students on a module or an entire award. The college considers this form of cheating as a serious offence. Therefore, be forewarned!
