16. WORLD LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT WRITING GUIDELINES All writings should be original and should reflect the student’s own ability level and knowledge base in the world language being studied. Uses of the following resources are encouraged as tools of reference; not as a means of verbatim translation (i.e., dictionaries, texts, computer software programs, translation programs). Teachers and other speakers of the language being studied can also serve as sources of assistance. In order to verify original work students should be prepared, upon teacher request, to translate their work from the target language to English and vice versa and identify and explain any grammatical constructions used in the writing. Violation of these guidelines will result in disciplinary action in accordance with the scholastic integrity policy of the Parkland School District.
