IN ACADEMIC WRITING YOU NEED
to show that you have researched your subject to acknowledge the sources you have used to
avoid the charge of plagiarism to ensure that it is your own work written in your
own words avoiding collusion to reference all the sources using the Harvard
Referencing system

HOW TO AVOID IT
Reference all your sources – within the assignment
Be accurate when you quote your sources
If in doubt – reference it!
TIP: Keep a record of your sources as you go along!

WHAT IS COLLUSION ?
When students work together on assignments which should be completed alone
When one student produces work and allows another student to copy it
- both students would be found guilty of collusion

PLAGIARISM The referencing isn’t in question here but:
It is not enough to change a few words. You either use the whole quotation or write it entirely in your own words.

PLAGIARISM
