PLAGIARISM
Because academic integrity is vital to the well-being of the university community, the University of Melbourne takes academic misconduct very seriously. The penalties for academic misconduct can be very severe. Examples of academic misconduct include plagiarism and collusion. The following section is an excerpt from the University of Melbourne’s webpage on academic honesty and plagiarism, available here:

http://academicintegrity.unimelb.edu.au/

What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is the act of representing as one’s own original work the creative works of another, without appropriate acknowledgment of the author or source. (Creative works may include published and unpublished written documents, interpretations, computer software, designs, music, sounds, images, photographs, and ideas or ideological frameworks gained through working with another person or in a group. These works may be in print and/or electronic media).

Examples of plagiarism

The following are examples of plagiarism where appropriate acknowledgement or referencing of the author or source does not occur:

• Copying directly (or allowing to be copied) paragraphs, sentences, a single sentence or significant parts of a sentence. An end reference without quotation marks around the copied text may also constitute plagiarism;

• Copying ideas, concepts, research results, statistical tables, computer programs, designs, images, sounds or text or any combination of these;

• Paraphrasing of another’s work closely, with minor changes but with the essential meaning, form and/or progression of ideas maintained;

• Relying on a specific idea or interpretation that is not one’s own without identifying whose idea or interpretation it is;

• Cutting or pasting statements from multiple sources or piecing together work of others and representing them as original work;

• Presenting as independent, work done in collaboration with other people (e.g., another student, a tutor);

• Submitting, as one’s own, all or part of another student’s original work;

• Preparing an original and correctly referenced assignment and submitting part or all of the assignment twice for separate subjects or marks;

• Cheating in an exam, either by copying from other students or by using unauthorised notes or aids.
