If you looked information up on the Internet for your work, make sure you copy the link of where you took the information from. As well as the date from when you accessed the information. This Is because the site can change and so will the information. Then, you can paste the link into your reference section of your work.

Plagiarism: Where somebody doesn't credit any sources in their report or copied a report from their colleagues. This would open up academic misconduct against them and they'll be disqualified if found guilty of plagiarism. To avoid this it is vital to cite reliable resources and make sure your work is your own.

There are two main styles when it comes to referring to peoples work. The main style of referencing that Solent requires you to use is the Harvard referencing method which is to cite the author and the work they've done along with the date of publication. You can then use inline citation where you refer to the reference page after citing the material.

Plagiarism in group work. If plagiarism is confirmed, and it is clear that it was the act of specific member(s) of the group, then the appropriate penalties may be applied to those specific members. If plagiarism is confirmed but it is still unclear who in the group was the originator(s), then all students in the group will have the appropriate penalties applied.

Why reference?

Referencing correctly:

helps you to avoid plagiarism by making it clear which ideas are your own and which are someone else’s

shows your understanding of the topic

gives supporting evidence for your ideas, arguments and opinions

allows others to identify the sources you have used.
