Teaching to Avoid Plagiarism
How to Promote Good Use of Sources
Most faculty will encounter plagiarism at some point in their careers and many believe that it is a growing problem in student work. The University has clear policies and procedures for reporting academic misconduct when it happens, but there are proactive steps we can take to try to prevent plagiarism from occurring in the first place. In this session, we’ll discuss the reasons why students plagiarize, what resources are available on campus to help students learn how to use sources appropriately, and how you can support students to learn to use sources effectively in your discipline. Presented by FDC staff with support from co-facilitators Anissa Sorokin, Writing Center, and Joanna Gadsby, Library. Lunch will be provided
