What does that mean?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both staff&nbsp;<em>and<\/em>&nbsp;students at La Trobe University have responsibilities&nbsp;under the university\u2019s policy to conduct&nbsp;scholarship honestly.&nbsp;Plagiarism, collusion and contract cheating&nbsp;are very serious matters and&nbsp;can bring us into conflict with these&nbsp;and amount to academic misconduct. Okay, that all sounds quite scary, but with that out of the way, let\u2019s understand what each of these are.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plagiarism <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ever-helpful&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/latrobe.libguides.com\/academic-integrity\/ethical_use\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">La Trobe Library&nbsp;LibGuides<\/a>&nbsp;provide a useful overview of&nbsp;plagiarism, adapted from the Centre for Academic Integrity\u2019s&nbsp;(2012)&nbsp;document,&nbsp;\u2018<a href=\"http:\/\/www.academicintegrity.org\/icai\/integrity-1.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Why integrity\u2019<\/a>. It tells us that plagiarism&nbsp;occurs when we use other people\u2019s ideas, design, thoughts or work without acknowledging where they originated from, in order to pass an assessment, get a higher mark or gain&nbsp;some kind of&nbsp;benefit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Collusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Collusion&nbsp;is&nbsp;a type of cheating, and it occurs when people work together to develop an assignment which is intended to be an individual effort. It involves copying someone else\u2019s work or allowing&nbsp;someone&nbsp;else to copy&nbsp;<em>your<\/em>&nbsp;work.&nbsp;Be aware \u2013 it is often easy for markers to spot collusion.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;difference between legitimate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.open.edu\/openlearn\/education\/educational-technology-and-practice\/educational-practice\/developing-good-academic-practice\/content-section-3.1\">collaboration<\/a> and collusion&nbsp;is subtle, but important. While collaboration is encouraged, passing off another\u2019s work as your own is not.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good examples of collaboration involve two (or more) students working together to help each other better understand what a topic or concept means or how this can be applied in their studies. It can also involve discussing approaches on how to solve a problem. As peers, we&#8217;re allowed and even encouraged to try and help each other understand and learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, answers to any assessments, exams or written work that are being marked individually should be completed independently and in the individual student&#8217;s own words. Collaboration crosses over into being &#8216;collusion&#8217; if there is discussion, recording or copying of the specific &#8216;answers&#8217; to a question or problem, which forms part of an individually assessed work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contract cheating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contract cheating&nbsp;involves asking another person to complete some, or all of your work (this could be an exam, an essay, report or assignment), and then submitting it for examination as though it was your own. Contract cheating doesn\u2019t need to include a payment for you to be accused of engaging in&nbsp;it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take-home message<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Always acknowledge your sources \u2013 don\u2019t try to pass off another person\u2019s work, ideas or designs as your own.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember: if you have concerns about plagiarism and acknowledging your sources correctly&nbsp;you&nbsp;can always&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/lms.latrobe.edu.au\/course\/view.php?id=57964&amp;section=11\">get help from Peer Learning Advisors&nbsp;(PLAs)<\/a> or other&nbsp;university&nbsp;library&nbsp;staff.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plagiarism, collusion and contract cheating.
