What is Plagiarism?
It is simply using someone elses words or
ideas and claiming them as your
own.
Types of plagiarism and penalties at UOWD
1.Plagiarism = copying or using someone
elses work without proper
acknowledgment. This can be sentences,
paragraphs or sections.
2.Severe plagiarism = submitting work which
is wholly copied from someone
else without proper acknowledgement.
Preparation
Research your assignments properly
before you start writing
You will need a lot of time to read
around the subject
Take careful notes as you read
Draw up an outline/plan and then write
a draft
Redraft and edit your work until you are
satisfied with it
If you need help, ask your lecturer/tutor
well BEFORE the deadline
Referencing and citation
Familiarize yourself with the Harvard
referencing system included in your
subject outlines
Find our more about proper referencing
and citation UOW library website
and Unilearning website

Attend a Learning Development
workshop on referencing and citation see
notice boards / UOWD website for

list at the end of your assignment is
NOT giving proper acknowledgement
you must use in-text citations to avoid
Plagiarism
