Please review the following:
A quiz was assigned in Unit 2 to review the “Understanding APA and avoiding plagiarism PowerPoint”. Please pay attention to the following:
- Students will not receive credit in SPCH 1311 for plagiarized assignments: There is a zero-tolerance policy for this practice.
- Plagiarism can be intentional (copying, stealing, buying a paper) or unintentional (forgetting to cite, or citing work incorrectly or inconsistently).
- The consequences for intentional and unintentional plagiarism are the same. To avoid plagiarism, you will learn and practice, how to cite your sources using APA format.
- Please remember: Every sentence that is not your idea should include a citation. The first time that you cite a source please use the verbal citation in your outline (this becomes an oral citation when you deliver your speech.
Why you need verbal citations tell the audience:
- How current the information is?
- Where the information can be found
- Why a source of information is credible?
- What information was provided by the source
Sample verbal Citation: Please use this version first
In the communication textbook, Understanding Human Communication written by Adler, Rodman and DuPré (2017) culture is described as a set of customs, beliefs and traditions shared by a group of people.
Outline: After using the verbal citation for each source once: Please use the in-text citations for every other idea that comes from that source.
- Use the in-text citation
- Smith (2016) or (Smith, 2016) for every idea that comes from that source.
If you do not complete the outline and PowerPoint: You can still succeed:
- Instead you can:
- Written Action Plan and Oral Report.
- You will not be required to use research.
- You should include a time management action plan to tell the audience what your mistakes were and how you will improve your process to ensure you complete the next project that you are a part of (maximum of 70% of the overall project grade).
