What is Academic Integrity? Honestly and truthfully submitting work that is your own which clearly acknowledges the ideas, words, creations, images, etc. of others. Further information Academic Integrity information for students http://www1.rmit.edu.au/students/academic-integrity Academic Integrity quick guide for students (PDF) http://mams.rmit.edu.au/vjilt8ngsqio.pdf

What comprises Academic Integrity? Presenting work that fails to acknowledge other people’s work. This includes: Plagiarism – the presentation of another person’s work, ideas, or creations as if it is your own. Cheating in an exam. Copying or submitting whole or parts of computer files as if they are your own, e.g. webpages. Further information Assessment policy http://www1.rmit.edu.au/browse;ID=qwxbqbg739rl1

Referencing and Academic Integrity Acknowledging the sources of your work is called referencing or citing. You must acknowledge your sources in the body of your work and in a reference list at the end. There are several different referencing styles used at RMIT. Check with your lecturer or course guides for the required style. Learn how to reference Library referencing guides http://www1.rmit.edu.au/library/referencing-guides Learning Lab: Referencing https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/learninglab/content/referencing iSearch tutorial: Reference https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/isearch/reference

Referencing from online sources You cannot copy works (text, images, media etc.) off the internet without referencing your source. Australian law limits the academic use of online material to 10% of the content of the webpage and this must be referenced! If you are using text, an image or other media from a webpage, you must reference the material. Check with your lecturer or course guides for your course requirements.
