” of 15 (o) E_D ,111III “Plagiarism is the act of taking or copying someone else’s work, including another student’s, and presenting it as if it were your own. Plagiarism is said to occur when ideas, texts, theories, data, created artistic artefacts or other material are presented without acknowledgement so that the person considering this work is given the impression that what they have before them is the student’s own original work when it is not. Plagiarism also occurs where a student’s own work is re-presented without being properly referenced. Plagiarism is a form of cheating and is a disciplinary offence.”
Plagiarism is easy to avoid by making sure you reference all of the sources of material that you use in the completion of your work.

GroUp coursework may gned so that the contribution of each student is identifiable, but inclusion be designed n of plagiarised material is still the responsibility of the whole group. All members of the group should exorcise vigilance to ensure that work is properly referenced, in group work, students have a shared responsibility for the assignment.
