2. LEARNING COMPITENCIES
• demonstrates ethical use of information MIL11/12IL-IIIc-9
• At the end of the lesson, the learners are able to:
• Identify the importance of proper sourcing of data
• Validate information
• Value the ethical use of communicating information
6. COMMON KNOWLEDGE:
Facts that can be found in numerous places and are likely to
be widely known.
Example: Rodrigo R. Duterte was elected President of the Republic of
the Philippines in 2016. This is generally known information. You do
not need to document this fact
7. INTERPRETATION:
You must document facts that are not generally
known, or ideas that interpret facts.
Example: Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball
player ever to have played the game. This idea is not
a fact but an interpretation or an opinion. You need
to cite the source.
8. QUOTATION:
Using someone’s words directly. When you use a direct quote, place
the passage between quotation marks, and document the source
according to a standard documenting style.
Example: According to John Smith in The New York Times, “37% of
all children under the age of 10 live below the poverty line”. You
need to cite the source.
9. PARAPHRASE:
Using someone’s ideas, but rephrasing them in your own
words. Although you will use your own words toparaphrase,
you must still acknowledge and cite the source of the
information.
10. Plagiarism has legal implications. While ideas themselves are not
copyrightable, the artistic expression of an idea automatically falls
under copyright when it is created. Under fair use, small parts may
be copied without permission from the copyright holder. However,
even under fair use - in which you can use some parts of the
material for academic or non-profit purposes - you must attribute
the original source. What is considered fair use is rather subjective
and can vary from country to country.
11. STRATEGIES IN AVOIDING PLAGIARISM
• Submit your own work for publication. You need to cite even your own work.
• Put quotation marks around everything that comes directly from the text and
cite the source.
• Paraphrase, but be sure that you are not simply rearranging or replacing a few
words and cite the source.
• Keep a source journal, a notepad, or note cards- annotated bibliographies can
be especially beneficial
• Use the style manual in properly citing sources
• Get help from the writing center or library
