1. Plagiarism Tuesday Tech Talks– Halloween, Oct 31, 4:00 pm
Dr. David Cox, Skeen Library Director, SKEEN ROOM 208

2. What a word! Plagiarism.
This may be the hardest topic for many in academia.
“To express an original thought is both harder and most necessary in academia. Intellectual Rights come into play. Developing as a scholar comes into play. It is more than simply copying others ideas, but claiming them as your own without giving credit to the originator. (mod, David E Cox)”

3. Plagiarism Quiz- http://turnitin
When I took this test, somehow I got 13 out of 13. I was designated a “Plagiarism Expert.” So I plan on using the test as seen above, from the Turnitin site, online.
We will clink on the link (because this is NOT my test, but one from Turnitin, and I am documenting the material by giving you the url) and I will attempt to give you the answers.

4. Reactions to quiz How did you do on the quiz?
What was your personal reaction to taking the quiz and receiving answers?
Is Plagiarism a hard topic?
What might be helpful to you in further discussions about Plagiarism?

5. Do You Remember Geometry?a
Remember how to process your answer? Axioms and the rest?
In some ways, it is a written out pathway, a showing your work, of how you got there.
The answer to the question created the path to getting your answer realized
You could not just state what you thought the answer was… you had to show your work

6. Living in the Answer Culture, and a cut, paste and use world
We live within an Answer Culture
Cut, Paste, Use come about with more information availability, that is, having a resource such as the Internet.
Information ownership… Information Rights… Information uses.
Major concerns in academics, but also in other fields of presentation and communication.
