Plagiarizing, which may include:

  • Changing the wording of a source slightly, but still incorporating all the ideas of the source without indicating the source; or
  • Altering the wording significantly but still incorporating the main ideas from other sources without indicating, through standard forms of documentation, which sources have been used, thereby implying that the ideas are one’s own;
  • Unacknowledged and unauthorized resubmission of work completed in other courses.
