Individual Declaration of

Academic Honesty

By signing this declaration I am confirming that I understand the meaning of ‘plagiarism’ and the meaning of ‘collusion’.

Plagiarism is the presentation by a student of an assignment which has in fact been copied in whole or in part from another student’s work, or from any other source (eg. published books, periodicals, or the web) without due acknowledgement in the text. 

Collusion is the presentation by a student of an assignment that is claimed to be his or her own work, but is in fact the result in whole or in part of unauthorized collaboration with another person or persons.

I,  ____________________ declare that for this submitted work:

• I did not cut-and paste information from others without appropriate use of quotation marks and direct reference to their work;

   

• I did not re-word the ideas of others without proper and clear acknowledgement;

   

• I did not write ideas or suggestions that originated from others and claim these as my own;

   

• I did not include words from other students’ work without permission.
