Plagiarism involves using others' words or ideas and presenting them as one's own. It can be intentional or accidental. Common forms of plagiarism include copying text from sources without proper citation or submitting pre-written essays. Plagiarism is easier online due to information overload and the ease of copying and pasting text. To avoid plagiarism, students should take notes in their own words, cite sources properly, and create bibliographies according to accepted formats. Teachers can detect plagiarism through tools like Turnitin or if the writing style does not match the student's usual work.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.

Avoiding Plagiarism Overview
Learning how to avoid plagiarism and to cite sources properly is an essential part of your education. Because plagiarism is a form of academic dishonesty and carries with it heavy penalties (in both this course and the broader academic world), I want you to learn this material thoroughly. I encourage you to revisit this page frequently throughout the course, until you feel completely comfortable with the rules of how to give credit to your sources.
You will see point values tied to your use of citations in each of your writing assignments for this course. A rubric is included with each of the assignments, so you can see how many points are associated with correct citation. More significant problems with plagiarism and failure to cite are addressed individually.
In this course, my goal is that you will learn how to:
· Paraphrase information you have gathered from a source, by writing the information in your own words.
· Place quotation marks around directly quoted text.
· Give credit to sources for both paraphrased and quoted material, by including an in-text citation.
· Include the correct information in in-text citations, including author's name and page number. (It is okay to include only the author's name when citing web sources.)
· Always include a work's cited section at the end of a paper, which includes all sources cited in the text of the paper.
· Format works cited sections correctly, according to standard MLA guidelines. (For this course, always include the full URL in web citations.)
Most students do not want to cheat, nor do they actively plan to cheat. In my experience, most of the plagiarism in this class comes from students not paraphrasing properly. I've seen a few instances of intentional plagiarism, which I think mostly comes from panic. This guide is about avoiding plagiarism altogether.
First, read a few pages on plagiarism. These pages are located at the Purdue OWL (Online Writing Lab). This a very good site for all things about writing.
Overview and Contradictions (http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/589/01/ (Links to an external site.))
Is It Plagiarism Yet? (http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/589/02/ (Links to an external site.))

Citing Properly
The bottom line of writing is that if you didn't think of it yourself, you need to cite it. We will now cover ways of incorporating a source's information into your writing and then discuss how to give credit where credit is due.
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing means putting information into your own words without using quotation marks. Note that paraphrasing means you are not using the source's words at all.
This website gives very clear examples of how to do this correctly:

Guide to Referencing and developing a Bibliography
Important Note for Law Students: Whilst these referencing pages will be useful for most
students, Law students should note they are specifically required to use the OSCOLA
referencing guidelines (Oxford Standard for Citation of Legal Authorities), please see our
OSCOLA guide for detailed guidelines and examples
http://welcome.ohecampus.com/laureate/upload/LawSchoolCitationGuide2009.pdf
Also see these online guides to the OSCOLA referencing format
https://ilrb.cf.ac.uk/citingreferences/index.html#oscola
Also see our pages on Refworks and other citation software for managing your references
and developing your Bibliography.
What is referencing?
It is very important that whenever you find a reference you immediately make a note of all
the relevant bibliographical (author, title etc) details. It can be very difficult to retrace the
details later and you will need the information to cite the references at the end of your
assignment or dissertation.
When you write your assignment or dissertation you are required to refer to the work of other
authors. Each time you do so, it is necessary to identify their work by making reference to it -
both in the text of your assignment (called 'in-text' referencing) and in a list at the end of your
assignment (called a 'Reference List'). This practice of acknowledging authors is known as
'referencing'.
References must be provided whenever you use someone else's opinions, theories, data or
organisation of material. You need to reference information from books, articles, videos, web
sites, images, computers and any other print or electronic sources. A reference is required if
you:
• paraphrase (use someone else's ideas in your own words)
• summarise (use a brief account of someone else's ideas)
• quote (use someone else's exact words)
• copy (use someone else's figures, tables or structure)

References enhance your writing and assist your reader by:
• showing the breadth of your research
• strengthening your academic argument
• showing the reader the source of your information
• allowing the reader to consult your sources independently
• allowing the reader to verify your data
Always remember to use referencing because if you use someone else's work and don't
reference it correctly, it is plagiarism, which is a serious offence of academic misconduct.
Please also see our Web pages on Plagiarism and how to avoid it.
Note on use of encyclopedias (Wikipedia etc.)

2. Plagiarism is worse in the
electronic world because of….
Information overload
Ease of cutting and pasting chunks from
the internet
Unreliable quantity of information on
internet
Difficulty in summarising and synthesising
large quantities of information
3. Plagiarism is….
Using the words or ideas of others and
presenting them as your own.
It can range from deliberate cheating to
accidentally copying from a source without
acknowledgement.
4. Common forms of plagiarism
Downloading an essay from an online
source and submitting it as your own work
Some cheat sites are……
A-1 Term Papers, Cheater.com, Free Essay
Network, The Evil House of Cheat,
Researchpaper.com, School Sucks, Term-
Papers.us and The Paper Store
5. Common forms (con’t)
Buying, stealing or borrowing an
assignment and submitting it as own work
Copying parts of books or articles and
submitting as own work’
Copying, cutting and pasting text from
electronic sources and submitting as own
work
Using the words of someone else and
presenting them as own work
6. How can we prevent plagiarism?
The following are good sites to understand what is
plagiarism
Avoiding plagiarism

(this one has a quiz)
Plagiarism: what it is and how to recognize and avoid it
http://www.indiana.edu/~wts/pamphlets/plagiarism.shtml
7. To avoid plagiarism you need to…..
Make notes in point form
Cite paraphrases and quotes correctly
Create bibliographies according to
accepted formats. More of this later….
8. Plagiarism may be suspected by your
teacher if there is….
Turnitin says so
Unique phrases are located using large search
engines like Google
Use of advanced vocabulary, sentence structure
or jargon
Unusual formatting or it does not match what is
required
Signs of website printout page numbers or dates,
unusual use of upper/lower case and
capitalization
Bibliography: ? incorrect citation style used
The essay is found by browsing websites
providing readymade papers
9. So remember to…..
Make notes in point form
Put in quotations everything that comes directly from the text
Paraphrase, but do not just replace or rearrange a few words (remember
to cite)
You do not need to document common knowledge. These are facts that
are found in many places and known by many people eg. Melbourne is
the capital of Victoria. A rule of thumb is that if you do not need to look
something up, it is common knowledge.
Do your bibliography and make sure that it is linked to citations within
your essay
TIP: do not leave doing your bibliography until the last minute – record
as you go, especially if you are using internet sites
12. An example looks like this…..
In body of essay:
• ….“Students need to take note of the
examiner’s report”(Cox and Wilson 2012)
* can include page nos. if you want to be specific
Bibliography at end of essay:
Cox, C. and J. Wilson. 2012. Surviving the IB
Melbourne: Penguin.
Alphabetical listing of references by primary
author’s surname regardless of type: book,
website etc.
13. Notational or documentary note
styles
• Examples include: Footnote (which covers
Oxford and Cambridge)
• Vancouver
• 3 step process
• Very popular when writing literature and
history essays
14. An example looks like this……
In body of essay:
•“…. Students need to take note of the examiner’s report”. ¹
At the bottom of the same page:
•1. Cate Cox and Jan Wilson. Surviving the VCE.(Melbourne:
Penguin, 2012), 23.
Bibliography at the end of essay:
•Cox, Cate and Jan Wilson. Surviving the VCE. Melbourne:
Penguin, 2012.
•Alphabetical listing of references by primary author’s
surname regardless of type: book, website etc.
15. Best websites
Murdoch University has a very comprehensive
website to do with referencing
• http://library.murdoch.edu.au/Getting-
help/Referencing/
• Monash University is also very good
• http://lib.monash.edu/tutorials/citing/
• Select the style you want and follow the
examples
• Referencing handouts in the CRC
16. Other sources
R 808.027 STY: Style manual for authors,
editors and printers – Australian
government publication
Bibme http://www.bibme.org/ : free online
citation maker * only does the reference
list at the end of the essay
17. ….a word about Word 2010
Word 2010 has the capacity to create a
bibliography list for you under the
References tab.
BUT : this works for author date styles but
not so well for ‘footnote styles”.
18. A tip to make your life easier
Record bibliographic details as you go. As soon
as you use some information from a source,
record all the details then.
It is MUCH MUCH easier to write your
bibliography if you do this.
You can always delete references to the material
you did not end up using.
We cannot help you much if you leave doing this
stuff to the last minute
