- 2. • What isplagiarism? • When is it ok to copy something directly word for word instead of summarising it in your own words? • What are the five steps to follow when you summarise facts or ideas from a book, article or website? • How do you present information correctly in a table or chart? • How would you reference your text book for this course? • What is the name of Massey’s APA referencing tool? DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

- 4. Submitting work that’sbeen researched or written by someone else. Submitting work that you’ve submitted before (e.g. for another course). Submitting work that relies too greatly on model answers or sample solutions provided in the course material. Copying text without including quotation marks, a page number and a citation. Using ideas from books, articles or websites without including a citation. What is plagiarism? Massey University, 2010 (See: http://tinyurl.com/masseyacademicintegrity)
- 5. Harris, 2001, p.96. Even if you have permission to use the material (e.g. it’s on an open source website), it is still plagiarism. Plagiarism ≠ copyright

- 8. Figure 23 showsan air admittance valve that may need repositioning since these are required to “be fitted in an upright position – they may fail if they are not vertical” (BRANZ, 1999, p. 45). The air admittance valve (fig. 23) has not been fitted vertically, as required, and is therefore at risk of failure (BRANZ, 1999).

- 10. Step 1: Finda relevant text
- 12. The credits aresummed into a total score which determines the design’s overall environmental performance. To gain a GHS certificate, the design (or recently finished building) must achieve at least 40 credits out of a possible 120 (An average house scores between 5-8 credits). The only mandatory category is the ‘whole-building thermal performance’ issue (worth 6 credits), as this is recognised as the cornerstone of good environmental design. All the other issues can be traded off to make up the balance of credits required. The four environmental performance categories (along with their threshold credit numbers) are Fair (40), Good (56), Very Good (70) and Excellent (86). These categories reflect the overall environmental competency of the developed design, with the remaining credits becoming progressively more difficult to achieve.

- 17. Step 4: Chooseyour citation method • brackets (author, year) • According to + author (year)… • Author (year)+ verb …
- 18. According to Harrison(1996), organisations need to address their own internal weaknesses so that they can interact with the external environment from a position of strength. Organisations need to address their own internal weaknesses so that they can interact with the external environment from a position of strength (Harrison, 1996). According to + author (year)….

- 20. Step 5: Expandthose notes into coherent sentences that make them relevant to YOUR case

- 22. The house’s overallenvironmental performance has been evaluated by means of a credit rating, reached by applying the criteria of the Green Homes Scheme (Hargreaves, 2005) under the guidance of an accredited assessor. At the time of writing, estimates could only be obtained for the categories marked with asterisks in Table 8 below. As the table indicates, the house would be likely to achieve the certificate, though at the lowest of the four possible bands. Although the threshold for this ‘fair’ category may seem rather low, at a mere 40/100, this still represents an environmental performance at least five times that achieved by the average home (Hargreaves, 2005). A higher band could only have been achieved through radical changes in design and materials (H. Rose, GHS assessor, personal communication, February 26, 2016). 8.2 Environmental Performance
