ENGL 1101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Academic Writing
Document Summary
Understanding & avoiding plagiarism: credit where credit is due, the genealogy of thought, copyright-related, based in part on context of writing. Academic writing has higher standards than mass-media publication due to the importance of developing ideas as conversations within a scholarly community. Ksu definition: plagiarism including direct quotations from other sources into work required to be submitted for credit without indicating them. Breaking down the code: this means you are claiming authorship of all the words in all your work unless you indicate otherwise, use quotation marks for most quotes. Remember that this is only one part of citation: plagiarism isn"t just about words.
