回复: (请教)如何界定抄袭
What is regarded as plagiarism in a British university -
First - when you quote the work of others directly it is plagiarism unless you provide a suitable reference, which includes a relevant page number or numbers.
Second - it is not good enough to just change a few words so that it is slightly different from the copied extract (be it a sentence or a few sentences). If you do this, you still need to provide a reference.
Third - if you are talking about someone else's ideas - then you need to signal this by providing a reference. A page number or page numbers is not always required - but the author(s) and year of study are absolute requirements. If they are not given, then it counts as plagiarism.
Fourth - you should avoid copy and pasting bits from an earlier assignment into a later assignment. If you want to do this, then provide a reference that refers to your own earlier work.
Fifth - you should not hand in something that is not your own work (i.e. something that someone else has written for you or that you have copied from).
Finally, from this semester onwards, we will expect you to check your work via "Turnitin". This software programme should be able to flag up all instances where you have "borrowed" from the work of others. As such, you can use it to check that you have, in fact, referenced everything that is highlighted by the "Turnitin" programme. That said, the programme isn't fullproof - i.e. it won't be able to say you need to refer to one of your own pieces of work or class handouts/power-points, etc.
