First, we learnt the definition of academic misconduct. There are mainly three categories:
1.Plagiarism:“the representation of the ideas or work of another person as the candidate’s own”.
2.Collusion:“supporting malpractice by another candidate as in allowing one’s work to be copied or submitted for assessment by another”.
3.Duplication:“the presentation of the same work for different assessment components and/or diploma requirements” 
4.Examination Malpractice:communicating with another student during an exam, bringing unauthorized material into an exam room regardless of whether there is any intent to gain unfair advantage.
5.Falsifying Data:creating or altering data with the intent to deceive the reader.

Then, we learnt what can be deemed as Plagiarism:
Plagiarism: This is defined as the representation,intentionally or unwittingly, of the ideas, words or work of another person without proper, clear and explicit acknowledgment.

Next, we mainly talked about how to write our own citations and references. We also did some quizzes about identifying plagiarisms.
Two situations of plagiarism:
1.word-to-word plagiarism
2.paraphrase plagiarism

They both can't be accepted when we are writing our EE. Using external ideas/resources always requires citations/references, except from common knowledge. One tip is that we can get advice from our supervisors before submission to confirm one knowledge/ idea is regarded as a common knowledge or not.]]> 2017-04-11 08:58:12 UTC https://padlet.com/776583497/w4zv3r4xc218/wish/165835489 776583497 https://padlet.com/776583497/w4zv3r4xc218/wish/166181386 What to cite?

Citation:
1. AuthorIn-text citation is done by an introductory and/or parenthetical citation providing: 
–  the last name of the author, and 
–  page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken, if applicable. 
2. Author–date In-text citation is done by an introductory and/or parenthetical citation providing: 
–  the last name of the author, and 
–  the year of publication from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken, and the page number, if applicable. 
3. Numbered footnote In-text citation is done by: 
–  superscript note numbers that come after the referenced passage, and after the final punctuation mark, if used, and 
–  corresponding footnotes placed at the bottom of their page of reference containing all reference details from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken; when using a source for a second or subsequent time, a shorter footnote reference is sufficient. The following section provides examples on how to cite: 
• printed sources 
• non-printed electronic sources 
• online video clips 
• social media. 
Definition:
Documentation:Documentation is the stylized process of indicating sources in the text (citation) and giving full details (references) to enable another reader to locate the sources. 
Style guides in common use in the academic world include the following. 
• MLA (Modern Language Association) 
• APA (American Pyschological Association) 
• Harvard 
• Chicago/ Turabian 
• CSE (Council of Science Editors) 
• ISO 690 (International Organization for Standardization) 
Citation:
A citation is an indication (signal) in the text that this (material) is not ours; we have “borrowed” it (as a direct quote, paraphrase or summary) from someone or somewhere else. 
The citation in the text can be: 
• in the form of an introductory phrase, or 
• at the end of the statement, or 
• indicated by a superscript or bracketed number that leads to a similarly numbered footnote or endnote. 
Reference:
. A reference gives full details of the source cited in the work; the parts or elements of the reference should be noted in a consistent order. Use of a recognized style guide will help ensure consistency, and will also ensure that all required elements are included.
bibliography  
. Most style guides require a list of references at the end of the work. This is usually a list, in alphabetical order, of the authors (last name first), whose words and works have been cited in the work. 
Summary:
A summary is a much-shortened summing up of someone else’s work. We might summarize a chapter or academic paper, or perhaps even a book, in two or three sentences. 
Quotation 
When we use someone else’s exact words, we quote that original author, and we show this is a quotation by using quotation marks. 
Paraphrase
. In writing an essay, we often use our own words to put over someone else’s thoughts and ideas. While there are some words that we cannot change (especially the names of people, places, chemicals, and so on), we should use our own words for as much as we can of the rest of the passage. We should also aim to change the structure of the passage, perhaps by reordering the thoughts and ideas.
