Do you feel that you are familiar with the sources you cited and that you fully understand the vocabulary, concepts, and arguments that you used in your report?

b. For the information that you read, did you understand and summarize the information? Do you feel that you are familiar with the sources you cited and that you fully understand the vocabulary, concepts, and arguments that you used in your report? Did you follow the APA writing style guide in preparing your report?

c. This is a “Turnitin” submission which means that the paper will be cross-checked with other resources to assure that what you are submitting is original writing and not copied from other sources. So, this would be a good time to double-check that you have correctly cited any quoted material, and that any sections that you meant to rewrite into your own words are now done. Remember that copying large blocks of information and assembling this information into your report is unacceptable in this course, and that information taken or quoted directly from any source that you used must be followed by the appropriate citation giving credit to the author(s). In addition to “Turnitin,” other measures may be taken to cross-check the originality of your work. If you do not make sure that your work is original using your own words to explain ideas and information, then your report may be labeled as “plagiarism.” And, as you know by now, the penalty for plagiarism or citing nonexistent references is a failing grade for this course.
