(Simmons, 1999) | | **Fabrication** | The falsification of data, information, or citations (Simmons, 1999). Creating false facts or citations to create "artificial acknowledgment" | | **Cheating** | Any attempt to give or obtain assistance in a formal academic exercise such as exam or "hiring" others to complete your assignments (Simmons, 1999) | - _Image shows a man sitting on a chair with a "Copy/Paste" label affixed to his back, another man sitting on a chair holding a sign with the word "FAKE" written on it, and another man looking angry_ # Part 1 - Academic Dishonesty ## **How to avoid plagiarism? #1** **MENTALITY** Don't even think of copying other's work.

Referencing is a way of demonstrating that you have done that reading. - **CITING:** acknowledging within your text the document from which you have obtained your information. # Reference Vs. Bibliography - The terms ,,References" and „Bibliography" are often used synonymously, but there is a difference in meaning between them. - References are the items you have read and specifically referred to (or cited) in your work and your list of sources at the end of the assignment will be headed „References". - Bibliography is a list of everything you read whether or not you referred specifically to it. - Normally contain sources that have been cited and also those found to be influential, but decided not to cite. - A bibliography can give a tutor an overview of which authors have influenced your ideas and arguments even if you do not specifically refer to them. # Why do we need reference? - To acknowledge others works - To allow others (readers) to find the original sources easily (cited reference) - To get recognition & authentication of the work. - To make the work informative. (Quality) - To trace the intellectual development of the ideas you present. - To avoid plagiarism - _Image shows a cartoon of Homer Simpson with the words "Not sure if the projector BLUR or my eyes get more MINUS" written below_ # Plagiarism **Examples:** - the verbatim copying of others work withoutacknowledgement. - the close paraphrasing of others work by simply changing a few words of altering the order of presentation. - Coping others idea - the unacknowledged quotation of phrases. # WHAT NEEDS TO BE REFERENCED? - Has it been presented formally into the public domain in some way? - Has it been presented in a tangible form? (Printed material, the Internet, a public talk/lecture etc). - Does someone have an ownership of it? Look for a named author or writer, or organization, including a website or host? - Is the information presented in the source in question outside the realm of „common knowledge"? # When..? - To give the source of tables, pics, statistics and diagrams which might be copied or have been a source of idea. - When describing a theory, model or practice associated with a particular writer. - To give credibility to an argument presented by you. - When giving emphasis to a particular idea that has found a measure of agreement. - To inform the reader of sources of direct quotations or definitions. - When paraphrasing another person's idea that you feel is particularly significant. # Referencing/Citation styles **Some commonly used style manuals are....** 1.

The reference is presented as a footnote at the bottom of the page or at the end of your work: [1] Myers, D. (2008) Construction economics: a new approach, 2nd ed., London: Taylor and Francis, p.159 **Author date style** - Barter (2003, p.258) has shown that..... # Source of References - Book - Journal - Newspaper / magazine - Conference paper/proceedings - Annual report - Institutional / Government publication - Electronic sources- Website, CD-ROM, Databases - Theses/ Reports/unpublished works etc. # Elements in the reference list - Author - Title of document - Date (year of publication) - Place of publication - Edition - Periodicity (volume/issue/ part number) - Series # Referencing in APA, Chicago and MLA for books - Examples - **APA** Darwin, C.

Start the quotation on a new line, indented 1/2 inch from the left margin. - Jones’s (1998) study found the following: Students often had difficulty using APA style, especially when it was their first time teacher for help. (p. 199) # Some basics.. - If you use quotation or any specific detail its good have page number in citation - Secondary Referencing - "Ivan Illich (1981), as summarised by Sherman and Judkins (1995 p.121) has suggested that „shadow work"..... - Johnson argued that...(as cited in Smith, 2003, p. 102). - In full reference only give your source book # Some basics - **A Work by Three to Five Authors:** - List all the authors the first time you cite the source. (Kernis, Cornell, Sun, Berry, & Harlow, 1993) - **In subsequent citations,** (Kernis et al., 1993) - **Organization as an Author:** - If the author is an organization or a government agency, According to the American Psychological Association (2000),... - **If the organization has a well-known abbreviation** - First citation: (Mothers Against Drunk Driving [MADD], 2000) Second citation: (MADD, 2000) # Some basics - **Two or More Works** (Berndt, 2002; Harlow, 1983) - **Authors With the Same Last Name:** - use first initials (E. Johnson, 2001; L. Johnson, 1998) - **Personal Communication:** - For interviews, e-mails, and other person-to-person communication, cite the communicator's name and the date of the communication.
