WHAT ARE THE SANCTIONS?

1

WHY NOT PLAGIARIZE?

3

TIPS TO AVOID the SANCTIONS

Practice of using another person's ideas or work and pretending that it is your own, not citing your sources (article, book, blog), recycling an assignment, copying, cheating, etc.

PLAGIARISM DEFINITION

DO NOT CONFUSE INSPIRATION WITH PLAGIARISM

Being inspired is part of a natural creative process. Recovering ideas, concepts or existing works to observe the themes, the creative process or the ingredients allows us to appropriate our own ideas, to mix references and to define our own thinking. The goal is always to create a unique and original project.

inspiration

To plagiarize means to copy a work in whole or in part and to take credit or authorship for it. As soon as the original author is not cited, it is plagiarism

The line between plagiarism and inspiration is sometimes blurred! It is the intention of the creative that acts as the limit.

THE 3 GOLDEN RULES FOR CITING SOURCES

A little clarification before continuing:Source = Where you find the information you use to create your assignment = someone else's work or one of your previous works.Citation / Short reference = short mention of a source inserted in your work = credit given to the creator.Bibliographical reference = Full description of the source and where to find it.Mediography = list of all your bibliographical references at the end of your work.

GOLDEN RULE #1

HAVE YOU FOUND A BEAUTIFUL PHRASE AND WANT TO INCLUDE PART OR ALL OF IT IN YOUR WORK?

When citing literally, put the quotation in "quotation marks" and mention the reference of the quoted text (at the end of the text in brackets or at the bottom of the page).                                                                                          The reference must include at least the author's name, the source page and/or the publication year.

For example : “Seafood is the world’s single highest-traded food commodity.” (J. Kennedy, p.14, 2018)

DID YOU FIND SOMETHING INTERESTING THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO INCLUDE IN YOUR WORK BUT YOUR TEACHER ENCOURAGED YOU TO WRITE IN YOUR OWN WORDS?

When you paraphrase (explain an idea in your own words), do not use quotation marks, BUT mention the reference of the text used (at the end of the text in brackets, or at the bottom of the page).                                                                                           The procedure to follow is exactly the same as the one you use in Golden Rule #1: the author name and the page of the source cited and/or the publication year.

This rule also applies to the texts you translate.

GOLDEN RULE #2

DO YOU WANT TO INTEGRATE AN IMAGE, A VIDEO, A SOUND EXTRACT, A DRAWING OR A PAINTING COPIED FROM A WEBSITE INTO YOUR WORK?

Copyright rules apply not only to words, but also to video clips, sound bites and images found online or elsewhere.                                                                                          The rules to follow are almost the same as those used in Golden Rule #1: Name of the creator, title of the work, and date.

For example : Arai, Noriko. "Can a robot pass a university entrance exam?" The Future You, TED 2017, 2017. https://www.ted.com/talks/noriko_arai_can_a_robot_pass_a_university_entrance_exam

GOLDEN RULE #3

Exhaustive: it contains all the references already mentioned in the text. It does not contain any reference that you have not cited. In alphabetical order of authors. Uniform: all the complete references are presented in the same way, with the information in the same order and punctuation.

Once you have cited your sources in your work, you still need to write down the complete bibliographic reference for each source you used and put it all together in a mediography. This should be:

WRITING A MEDIOGRAPHY

There are several standard styles for presenting references. If your teacher does not indicate a particular style, you should refer to the Guide to Academic Writing in Omnivox.

WRITING A MEDIOGRAPHY

The author (who) - It can be a person or an organization The title (what) - With subtitle and edition number if applicableThe publication (where) - City + publisher or URL Date (when) - Copyright date or date of last consultation

The complete references that compose a mediography always contain the same information:
