verify the information.




quote (use someone else’s exact words)

When do you not need to give references?
 References are not required for items of general
knowledge or common knowledge.
 Common knowledge includes facts that are well
known within the community in which they are used.
 An example:
Auslan is the sign language of the Australian
deaf community.

What if you don’t reference?
Plagiarism is the term used when someone copies
another person’s ideas or opinions as their own and
doesn’t acknowledge the original source of the
information.
Plagiarism, whether deliberate or accidental, is a
form of cheating and is not acceptable.
Remember, if you plagiarise in your assignment you
may fail 
