Please note there are two submission prompts for the Annotated
Bibliography assignment. You MUST submit Submission 1 papers
(by due date and at the beginning of class) to check your plagiarism
score. There is no magic number that is acceptable. Highlighted
phrases and lines are considered evidence of plagiarism. You may use
the initial Turnitin score as a writing tool to use as a guide to rewrite
early submissions without penalty until they are “clean”. This means
you may submit Submission 1 multiple times. In order to earn the 50
points for Submission 1, the first submission must done by the due
date and at the beginning of class. Once you are satisfied and ready
for me to grade the assignment you MUST submit (by due date and at
the beginning of class) it to the final submission prompt (50 points) so
I know for sure the paper is to your satisfaction. Plagiarism in all final
submissions will be reported (See student conduct). This means that if
there is evidence of plagiarism in Submission 2 the plagiarism will be
reported.
