Please review the following:

A quiz was assigned in Unit 2 to review the Understanding APA and avoiding plagiarism PowerPoint.  Please pay attention to the following:

  1. Students will not receive credit in SPCH 1311 for plagiarized assignments: There is a zero-tolerance policy for this practice.
  2. Plagiarism can be intentional (copying, stealing, buying a paper) or unintentional (forgetting to cite, or citing work incorrectly or inconsistently).
  3. The consequences for intentional and unintentional plagiarism are the same. To avoid plagiarism, you will learn and practice, how to cite your sources using APA format.
  4. Please remember: Every sentence that is not your idea should include a citation. The first time that you cite a source please use the verbal citation in your outline (this becomes an oral citation when you deliver your speech.

Why you need verbal citations tell the audience:

  • How current the information is?
  • Where the information can be found
  • Why a source of information is credible?
  • What information was provided by the source

Sample verbal Citation: Please use this version first

In the communication textbook, Understanding Human Communication written by Adler, Rodman and DuPr (2017) culture is described as a set of customs, beliefs and traditions shared by a group of people.

Outline: After using the verbal citation for each source once: Please use the in-text citations for every other idea that comes from that source.

  1. Use the in-text citation
  2. Smith (2016) or (Smith, 2016) for every idea that comes from that source.

If you do not complete the outline and PowerPoint: You can still succeed:

  • Instead you can:
    • Written Action Plan and Oral Report.
    • You will not be required to use research.
    • You should include a time management action plan to tell the audience what your mistakes were and how you will improve your process to ensure you complete the next project that you are a part of (maximum of 70% of the overall project grade).
