Seven Forms of Academic Dishonesty
Identify the Seven Forms of Academic Dishonesty and write a response for each:
1. Plagiarism : Plagiarism is when you copy a paragraph or a phrase without putting the proper quotations, punctuations, and citations. When you copy from a source word for word you must put the proper quotation marks or block quotes. If you copy a paragraph from another source you must add proper citations.
2. Self-Plagiarism:
Self-plagiarism is when a student includes work in one assignment that was previously completed and submitted for a different assignment or course, without using the proper citation or getting the proper approval to do so. For example, a student writes a paper for GEN/195, submits the paper and completes the course, in the next class HUM/185 there’s a similar paper due, the student decides to use the previous paper but does not cite the previous paper nor does the student get approval to use the previous paper. This student, along with any other student involved in self-plagiarism, will face the same consequences as if they plagiarized the assignment.
3. Fabrication:
