:: Referencing

Plagiarism is the presentation of another person's work, ideas, or creations as your own, without acknowledging where those ideas came from. In other words - you take credit for someone else's work.

THIS IS CHEATING!!

What constitutes plagiarism?

• copying phrases and passages word-for-word without quotation marks and without a reference to the author
• paraphrasing an author's work and presenting it without a reference
• copying any part of another students' work
• submitting a piece of work that has already been submitted for assessment in another subject
• presenting other people's designs and images as your own work
• submitting work as your own that someone else has done for you.

If you have used someone else's work without acknowledging your source, you have plagiarised.

There are a number of different referencing systems used in academic writing. Two most common types are:

Author-date systems, such as the Harvard System

Number systems, such as the Chicago System
