Academic dishonesty is the act of participating in obtaining or attempting to obtain credit for work by the use of dishonest, deceptive, fraudulent, or unauthorized means. Collaborative studying is not academic dishonesty onlywhen specifically permitted or required by a teacher. Examples of academic dishonesty include, but are not limited to the following list. These offenses, or offenses deemed similar, are considered a breach of the Academic Honesty Policy:
-Copying another student’s work. (Copying includes using another person’s verbal response to a question as an original answer.) -Unauthorized using of textbooks, notes, computer programs or written aids during an examination. -Looking at another student’s paper or talking during an examination or assignment. -Helping another student to cheat on an examination or assignment. -Exchanging answers with other students, either before, during, or after an examination or assignment. -Taking someone else’s assignment and submitting it as your own. -Plagiarizing any material without giving the author/artist name and/or source. -Using material from the Internet without clearly identifying it as such. -Providing material to be used in a dishonest manner, such as providing homework answers for copying.
Please note: If you are given the "Originality Report" tool option on an assignment on Google Classroom, you are EXPECTED to use it. If you have any flagged items at the time of turn-in, this will be treated as plagiarism. The consequence of any of these actions will be a score of zero for the assignment and an immediate administrative referral. Integrity is expected from all Trailblazers during school…and life.
