Academic Integrity

And

Performance

 

            On Wednesday,19 July 2017,our class were learning the chapter 7.The chapter 7 was about Academic Integrity and performance that had given by Madam Nurul Afzan Najib. Integrity is when the students need to be honest and responsible in their study without copy paste or imitate any information from any resouces. They should need to avoid plagiarism. Plagiarism means an act or wing or closing imitating the language and thoughts another author ‘without’ authorization and the representation of the author’s work as one’s own ,as by not additing the original author. The simple meaning is we just copy and paste any information or research from someone without changing anything or make some edit. That call plagiarism. Students usually involved in plagiarism accidentally when they make some repots, research paper and assignment. Plagiarism also happen when they did their assignment in last minute.

            Way to impress or clues for identify the plagiarism are turning in someone else’s work as your own ( copy paste ), copying words or idea from someone else without giving credit ( example of credit: Base on Berita Harian, 2 July 2017, Monday, The title…. ), failing to put a quotation marks( “” ), giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation, changing words but still copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit and copying so many words or idea from a source that make it up the majority of your own work, whether you give a credit or not. But how to prevent from this plagiarism? There are three simple step that we can use it. First we need to consult our lecturer or instructor before started our assignment. We should asking them how they want the assiment, like this or like that. Next is we must to plan our assignment. The requirements in this plan are the date when we want to start the assignment, the structure of assignment and so on. Lastly, we need to take effective notes from newspaper, encyclopedia, brochure and many more.

SMARTART OF PLAGIARISM

Every student diploma, asasi, and anything else need to writed their own’s  paper. The tips to make our own’s paper are maked some cite sources such as the link of the website and the title of encyclopedia, make it clear who said that ( The name of author,title of book,who said that,the publisher,date of publication and so on ), evaluate the source wheter it true or false and your work must include a refrences/ citation ( from which book and which link ). Exampale of citation are( The habitat of mamalia by Jack Soo Micheal,1994 and the information from….. ).

            Lastly, we also learn the way to calculate the CGPA. CGPA is Cumulative Grade Point Average in every sem or part during we study in IPT and IPTS. In part one, we call it as Great Pointer Average( GPA ) but in another part we call it as CGPA. Our lecturer said we need to score the pointer about 3.5 and above in part one to get great graduate soon. It is because we can easily score in that part than another parts. The calculation is are :
