Online Discussion: Make it the best!
In-class presentations and independent research opportunities have
permitted you to develop a sense of research ethics. Textbook reading
has shown ways to differentiate between various techniques for using
source material (quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing). Therefore, you
are now able to demonstrate an awareness of when each is appropriate to
use in research writing. In addition, you can identify the problems
created by the careless or inappropriate use of directly quoted material
to avoid plagiarism as a form of academic dishonesty.
For the purpose
of this discussion, imagine you are "guest speaker" in high
school classroom. You have been assigned the responsibility of lecturing
to a group of 20 students on the ethical use of information.
Describe 5 key
information elements you would include in your presentation. Be sure to
respond once to the forum topic by Tuesday, April 13 at 5:00 p.m., and
twice to classmates (by close of discussion).
