2.1 Academic integrity means that all work which is presented is produced by the student alone, with all sources and collaboration fully acknowledged. 2.2 Any failure to meet the requirements of academic integrity in any form of academic work will be regarded as a breach of the requirements of academic integrity and, depending on the circumstances and the nature of the breach, consequences including penalties may be expected to follow. Breaches of academic integrity may include plagiarism, collusion, fabrication, falsification, double submission of work and misconduct in examinations. 2.2.1 Plagiarism Plagiarism is the use of another person’s words or ideas as if they were one’s own. It may occur as a result of lack of understanding and/or inexperience about the correct way to acknowledge and reference sources. It may result from poor academic practice, which may include poor note taking, careless downloading of material or failure to take sufficient care in meeting the required standards. It may also occur as a deliberate misuse of the work of others with the intent to deceive. It may include, but is not restricted to: ? presenting extracts, without quotation marks and/or without appropriate referencing, from books, articles, theses, other published or unpublished works, films, music, choreography, working papers, seminar or conference papers, internal reports, computer software codes, lecture notes or tapes, numerical calculations, data or work from another student. In such cases, it is not adequate merely to acknowledge the source. This applies to material accessed in hard copy, electronically or in any other medium; ? close paraphrasing of sentences or whole paragraphs with or without acknowledgement by referencing of the original work; ? adopting ideas or structures from a source without acknowledgment; ? using source codes and data from other’s work without acknowledgement; ? arranging for someone else to undertake all or part of a piece of work and presenting that work as one’s own; ? submitting another student’s work whether or not it has been previously submitted by that student.
