Author Information Description It’s the moment every student dreads. You look on the notice board for your mark but instead of seeing one, what you see instead [next to your name] are the dreaded words "please see the lecturer". With your heart pounding, you make your way to the lecturer’s office only to be told that your mark has been withheld based on the indictment that you plagiarised your work. You immediately plead your innocence basing it on ignorance but this does not wash with the university. They are threatening to throw you off the course. What are you going to do? Research suggests that Plagiarism is the number one problem facing students in higher education. It is also the offence all universities consider the most serious hence the reason why it merits such a harsh punishment in the event of the student getting caught. Research also suggests that while some students plagiarise intentionally when writing their coursework, many others commit it without realising they are doing so. The terrible thing is upon being accused, at the worst the student can expect to be thrown out of the course altogether; and at the very best receive a warning and have points deducted from their coursework. This book (the first of its kind) will ensure you never have to face such a problem during your stay at university. This book will help you on three powerful fronts: O It will help you avoid plagiarism by showing you how to competently change words O round so as to avoid being accused of it; O In the event of getting caught, how to offer a successful defence to your university and O in the process ensure you get the benefit of the doubt whilst not losing marks or getting O thrown off the course; and overall O How to get round the problem whilst ensuring maximum marks. Understanding that students prefer lots of simplified examples that they can understand and relate to, the book also includes comprehensive examples of how to safely change articles round into your own words. With this book, as your weapon, you can go about writing any coursework and/or dissertation with the knowledge that you will have nothing whatsoever to fear whilst awaiting your mark. In short, compared to what you could lose, it would be suicide not to have this book by your side – just in case!
