Plagiarism and collusion are forms of cheating and are not acceptable in any form of a student’s
work, including this assignment. You can avoid plagiarism by giving appropriate references
when you use some other people’s ideas, words or pictures (including diagrams). Refer to the
American Psychological Association (APA) Manual if you need reminding about quoting and
referencing. You can avoid collusion by ensuring that your submission is based on your own
individual effort.
The electronic submission of your assignment will be screened through a plagiarism detecting
software, Turnitin.
For more information about plagiarism and cheating, you should refer to the Student
Handbook. SUSS takes a tough stance against plagiarism and collusion. Serious cases will
normally result in the student being referred to SUSS’s Student Disciplinary Group. For other
cases, significant marking penalties or expulsion from the course will be imposed.
