Have a look at the 4 items that you have been given and consider the following: • Which items are the most relevant to your essay? • Which items would be no use? • Which item has the most academic authority? • Are any of the items bias? • Which item is the most current?

  29. Authority : Who is the author? What is their knowledge base/qualifications? How have they carried out their research? • Relevance : Is this what I need? Will it answer my question? Is it at the right level? • Intent : What is the purpose of information e.g. financial gain, propaganda, academic etc? • Objectivity : Balanced view? Opposing views represented? Links to supporting information? • Currency: How old is this information? When was it last updated and by whom?

  30. What is Plagiarism? • Copying or re-wording someone else's work (ideas, • words, diagrams or pictures) without acknowledging that • they are not your own • Copying work from another student – even with permission • from that person • Using your own previous work in another • assignment without acknowledging it • A form of cheating and a serious academic • offence
