    Section Plagiarism Policy

    Throughout academic research and writing you are likely to build on the ideas of other people and
    organizations. Doing so helps add credibility to your academic work. Using the ideas of respected
    individuals, institutions, and organizations is an excellent academic practice so long as you give credit to
    those you borrow ideas from. Plagiarizing the ideas and work of others (including other students) in this
    course is unacceptable.

    Unlike language and arts courses, direct quotations are rarely used in scientific writing. Direct quoting in
    science implies that the writer does not understand the material and does not reflect original thinking.
    Do not directly quote in a scientific essay or lab report unless you directly interviewed the author(s).
