Topic 6: Academic And Integrity Performance!

 





Avoiding Plagiarism.
What is plagiarism? Plagiarism is the process of taking someone else's work idea or words as your own. As university students, we are constantly met with assignments, especially written ones such as this e-portfolio. Plagiarism could be a common thing when it comes to working on your assignment. So, how do we avoid it?

  1. Cite your source
  2. Include quotations
  3. Paraphrase 
  4. Present your own ideas
  5. Use a plagiarism checker

Hopefully by following these steps, we could steer clear from plagiarism. Other than that, this topic also taught us how t0 calculate Grade Point Average (GPA) via the formula given:
