  13. Plagiarism and Citing Sources You MUST use APA formatting and style for your papers. You MUST cite your sources---EVERY assignment should at a minimum cite your textbooks for this course. If you have questions regarding APA format and citations, check out the Writing Center Be sure to review the Plagiarism Policy

  14. Netiquette---’Internet Etiquette’ Wait to respond to a message that upsets you and be careful of what you say and how you say it. Be considerate. Inappropriate communication will not be tolerated. Never post a message that is in all capital letters -- it comes across to the reader as SHOUTING! Keep messages short and to the point. Always practice good grammar, punctuation, and composition. Keep in mind that threaded discussions are meant to be constructive exchanges. Be respectful and treat everyone as you would want to be treated yourself. Use spell check!
